Dear don't go with the name he is representing Men's team and not women....

Yes to clarify, Supriya in Bengali is pronounced as Supriyo for male and Supriya for female, the spelling remains same though. Some guys do change the spelling to Supriyo though. Similarly the names like Sudipta, even Prashanth is a common name in Bengali, though pronounced as "Proshanto" the spelling still remains Prashanth, we love the letter 'o' in Bengali, that's where rasgulla becomes roshogolla.

Our GR guys didn't do much today but some food for thought - the American who qualified in 59 kg in Turkey had lost to Gaurav Sharma in the first round in Mongolia (we decided to send Ravinder instead of Gaurav to Turkey).
