So weightlifting will be streamed live on Olympic Channel, meaning a great opportunity to watch the Commonwealth Championships with commentary. Looking for multiple records.

That was a home assignment for all users to know what is happening and where. I was referring to weightlifting competitions where India is participating as commonwealth national. So indirectly part of Pacific games.

Iwf website shows 9th that is day after tomorrow

Then you can watch it bro because anyhow whole day you'll be online

Ha yes... Australian Weightlifting Channel will show it on youtube from early morning hours tomorrow.

So the Pacific games start from tomorrow. India is indirectly participating in the games for the 1st time. Broadcast is available on Olympic Channel, TV3 Samoa and YouTube Channels. Indian action is available on youtube the whole day.

Yes ofcourse. It's given so in iwf website and yeah its counted separately.

There are so many athletes that it cannot be held in 1 day and weightlifting is scheduled for few days so can't be separate.

Team qualification is not over yet. But it's a disastrous timing, less than 3 weeks before Olympic games the qualification tournament is scheduled. With Italy, Spain, Denmark, France etc won't be easy.

If it's for medals hockey has no chance

I believe it's Nigeria and Lebanon + =

Where on earth shooting came? No one mentioned about shooting qualification

We had won it on Thursday itself after qualification scores. There is no weightlifting, wrestling, boxing or badminton this time. So we are almost done with the universiade medal tally. Only a big shock will be able to win medals in archery or athletics, but it's only about performance to watch, nothing more.

Korea with a 2nd string team at the Berlin world cup

I don't know about the results but India should win a gold in " our event " and hopefully a good qualification score Elavenil When are the shooting finals?

I don't think she'll go to Kazakhstan and come back again to Italy.

What a proud moment for India at the Opening ceremony! Led by first openly LGBT athlete, Dutee Chand!

It was a historical moment for India at the Opening ceremony, as the Dutee Chand became the first ever flagbearer who was openly belonging to LGBT. This has never happened in any major multi sport event for India.

First medal event of universiade?

WD : Suthirtha /Madhurika advance to R 16

Here are the Indian predictions India is one of the more unpredictable nations in sports, that can have a pretty dissapointing to a somewhat decent performance. Shooting : Women's 10m Air Rifle : 1-2 Men's 10m Air Pistol : 1 Women's 10m Air /25 m pistol : 0-1 Mixed 10m Air Rifle :1-2 Mixed 10m Air Pistol :1 Boxing : Men's 48-52 kg : 1 Women's boxing :0-1 *Depends on judging Weightlifting Women's 49kg :1 Hockey 0 - 0 Absolutely no chance Badminton Women's Singles : 0-1 It is strange but could be zero, current form is way too poor. So getting a Chinese /Japanese /Taipei /Thai player in quarters won't help. Archery 0 - 0 Not great archers in big televised events. Athletics 0- 0 Javelin Throw : PB is 88 odd metres, outside chance with some luck Archery /Athletics /TT combined : 0-1 Table Tennis 0-0 Men's Team and Mixed Doubles are not that bad, qualifying won't be easy, quarters would be more than good Wrestling 1-2 Men's 65 kg - Bajrang Women's 50 kg - Vinesh * * Competing in 53 kg never a medal contender, current asian games champion in 50 kg so should be favorite if comes back to 50kg. Else No Total : 7-14 Predicted : 7 Optimistic : 14 Fact : Most of the medal winning events are on the very first day of action at the games (3 /7), including what is the most important event for India at the 2020 Olympics - The Women's 10m Air Rifle. This is the strongest individual event India has ever had from the last 1 year or so and interestingly this is the 1st medal event of games. Apurvi Chandela has not gone beyond 4th position in any event in last 1.5 years, 2 titles at world cup this year. Anjum Moudgil is a air rifle mixed sepcialist i should say. She's unbeatable in new format with Divynash this year. She was a 50m3P specialist earlier too. On the first day we even have weightlifting and 10m air pistol men where Saurabh Chaudhary is unbeaten for a year in the event. If things go wrong on 1st day, no more than 3 medals at Tokyo 2020.

Couldn't agree more. Perfectly said.

As the qualification for the games are in full swing, felt this is the right time for predictions for your nation's medals, the top favourites and also your country's position on medal table.

The games were initially good, but I haven't watched the previous few days of action at all, because it was too boring. Only few sports - shooting, archery, 3*3 basketball and maybe some tt and beach soccer was nice. With no enough sports and lack of interest among competing nations, didn't like it much. Major sport missing for me to watch - Weightlifting and Handball

Haha lol.. Lets see if USA can qualify first for Summer Olympics this time. Even if they do there is a 100% chance they won't win any medal soon.
