Now have the best chance in a century to qualify for a team sport finally. If they play the way they did in Asian Games losing to Japan in semis 10-12, we could see something interesting here. All matches will be livestreamed on facebook on Asian Rugby Page.

An odd performance by shooters till now. No finalist yet.

Ghana is already qualified right? Because South Africa failed to fulfill the top 2 criteria in qualifiers.

Qualified!!

Now 50% of the active Indian members are from Karnataka. So let's all rise for the state anthem of Karnataka : We all have been singing and listening to this since early schooling. And here goes the Karnatakan flag :

Nice to see more Indian members at the forum.

But the football team joined central asia recently.

There you go. Its interesting how @phelps always manages to post shooting and baseball results during global tournaments . One can rename it as ' The Phelps ISSF World Cup 2020 ' next year

Hmm .But is it like its a part of Central Asia now

But how come other sports it's playing?Like football and cricket.

https://www.13sagnepal.com The official website. BTW why Afghanistan is not a part of it?

The medal table will look much even this time around. can win 5-6 golds in Taekwondo. Suprised to see Kabaddi left out.

All set for the WC finals approximately 20mins from now.

And what sports only those mentioned before

So the all important season ending ISSF World Cup Finals will be held from 19th in China. Interesting tournament to watch.

Don't know about the others, may qualify from Asia/Oceania. I'm sure Iran will fail to qualify this time around.

I don't see any bright light in badminton. Absolutely not. We are in 2007 as of now. Reaching quarters of bwf event is considered a success. Morale is a 10 year low. Even Gutta-Diju had won silver in 2009 bwf yonex year ending finals and were qualifying for year ending finals before that.

Good result for her. She can retire sooner at this rate.

I have read an article long back about how difficult it is to get bullets in Iran. Even when they get its like precious. Most of the shooters in India faced the problem of bullets as they were costly so very few bullets say 10 -20 were used daily or once in 2 days, I think Elavenil had said this in 2015 . Now a lot of funding is there so good.

Oh wait I realize the quotas are counted. He has to do the rest now.

Elsewhere India could miss the Tokyo Olympics. https://www.insidethegames.biz/articles/1086940/india-fear-ioc-suspension

So we will end up with 17 member shooting team in most likelihood. Anish will qualify if he can maintain top 15 in the rankings. Kynan is qualifying easily even being at 21st spot. Turkey, France and Germany are there but it's easy for him. Slovakia will swap the quota won as Erik Varga has 2 quotas won. Qatar will swap the quota from the unknown shooter who won it to the Dakar Rally Champion, Naseer Al Atiya, Olympic bronze medallist in skeet. Chinese Taipei can swap too. One of the above Europeans will win a quota in their last Tournament.

Oh but his form isn't good at all. I'm not sure he'll be chosen.

Not much on store for today. Some aeronautical pentathlon at the CISM games. My lab end sems are going on so not much time 15-20 mins of other sport.

And he has failed to qualify for Olympics . I don't give him a chance to qualify. As of now ranking spot goes to So host quota reallocated . If not it will go to ,Tran not the Olympic Champion. And quota goes to athlete not NOC in reallocations. So a new champion will be crowned.
