Not in the finals of the Olympic qualification event!!! The going gets tougher.

well great things were achieved today in the olympic qualification event .... two quotas today  ....last world championship in the whole event we had one ... this time I predict minimum 4-5 which was my prediction before this  event began

  Good show from Virdhawal and Sajan.....

Brilliant show by Virdhawal and Srihari ........ Swimming we are so far from olympic standard it is scary ....but I am hoping for a couple of swimmers to qualify for tokyo  on time and not on universality..... probably it may be one of three Virdhawal , sajan srihari as sejwal seems to be aging

what a world championship it has been for India Till now ............. I am so impressed !!!!!..... India seems like it is entering the world A category of nations like CHN, USA, ITA etc ...... It is not just the quota places but the sheer depth of talent .............This team is so young and so bloody talented ........ I am not suprised that they are doing something wonderful .... this is the best performance by any Indian team in any world championship that I have seen forever........... 

can we KEEP IT UP and win something 10-20 medals which seems a very reasonable estimate based on the start

we have almost same number of medals of the last 3 world championship In the first two days of this one .... This team is phenomenal ............. I forsee this team getting us 3-5 medals at tokyo as I said earlier ....... and if any one is saying otherwise I will call them pessimistic 

It's only 2 quotas as of now. The World Championships will suggest how many medals we can win. The juniors winning medals is fine but for Tokyo the seniors need to win medals.

We have won more medals in this world championship than we have won in the last three put together...... it is not about medals alone it is about the quality of this team , let us just applaud this young shooters and revel in their performance ........................medals will happen if not now in the future
