Here coach is right , a number of athletes who achieved qualification in 5000 will not run as they qualified in other events & the schedule is not kind. Parul Chaudhary qualified in both Steeplechase & 5000 but she is most likely to withdraw from 5000 & concentrate on her pet event i.e Steeplechase. I hope there is 8-9 withdrawals as our other girl in 5000 Ankita is 7 places outside the cut off range. With Parul’s likely withdrawal she needs just 6 more withdrawals. I hope Jodie’s coach has got the number spot on.

He is 1st Alternate now. As Sreeshankar is currently 7th in the list ( He achieved entry standard last year) but is out injured & won’t participate in Paris. Jeswin Aldrin our other long jumper is currently placed 33rd ( first alternate) but he will get in due to his teammate withdrawal . So Meindlschmid is now the first alternate in the list. You need just 1 more withdrawal.

Don’t count out Romania, the dutch have been playing poorly & Romania has played well in the group stage.

Its there , he mentioned the names individually.

2nd July

1. Same as above 2. &

You can’t say it wasn’t coming. Cruel for Slovakia but that was a good goal from Bellingham.

50.95s is the Standard

At Nationals Kiran Pahal achieved OQS in Women’s 400m by clocking 50.92s. This won’t add any additional quota place as our 4x400m girls have already qualified for Paris.

Much deserved win for Deutschland 2014 Weltmeister marches on to QF

I don’t know why he keeps playing Havertz . Fullkrug would have buried that free header. They are trying to be too cute with their passing football when reality is they can loose this match in a counter attack.

Yaaay Becomes the T20 world champions This is our 2nd world cup title , in a format which will be in LA28. We can start dreaming

Received 2 universality quotas Srihari Nataraj: Men’s 100m Backstroke Dhinidhi Desinghu: Women’s 200m FS (She is just 14 years young & will be the youngest athlete in our contingent)

Lets put it this way Slovakia has a better chance of beating England than Georgia has of beating Spain.

Does she automatically becomes part of the relay team (5 members) with this qualification in individual event?

The draw for 3rd round for AFC WC qualifiers were made today

9 changes for But Ronaldo keeps his place

You have two choices or I know whom I would choose But credit to , hopefully this will help local club football as well.

Dhinidhi has got the quota based on her 200m Freestyle timings/accumulated score while Srihari has got it on basis of his 100m backstroke as per the universality document uploaded on the world Aquatics website. I am not sure if they are able to swim in other events also. SFI should have made it clear. Maybe they can as there is no limit on each event but on total number of participants. So maybe both will swim in two events.

Swimming federation of India have announced the two universality spots as confirmed by world Aquatics (FINA). Dhinidhi Desinghu (Female) & Srihari Nataraj (Male) have qualified for Paris Olympics under universality quota. With these 2 quota places our contingent size now rises to 102 athletes in 16 sports

Yes, apparently Denmark & Slovenia are separated by qualifying ranking.

It updates every Wednesday. Should be updated tomorrow.

When can we expect the universality spots to be made official by FINA?
