it's very likely that we have 4 English teams in Quarters , Premier league recovers 

I have a feeling that only ManC and Liverpool will qualify. Barca will steamroll Chelsea and Juve will edge Spurs out in Wembley. With current form of ManU, I fthink Sevilla might win the tie

Three Algerian satellites successfully launched from India

 

THX @gvaisakh, 
 

 

Three Algerian satellites (Alsat-1B, Alsat-2B and Alsat-1N) have successfully been launched Monday morning by Indian launcher PSLV C35 from Sriharikota site (Satich Dahwan Space Center), the Algerian Space Agency announced (ASAL).
 
Satich Dahwan Space Center's lancher PSLV C-35 put into orbite 8 satellites including three Algerian ones, ASAL said in a communiqué.
 
Alsat-1B is the second Algerian medium-resolution earth observation satellite launched by Algeria after Alsat-1.
 
Alsat-1B is part of the DMC" (Disaster Monitoring Constellation) international constellation endowed with an excellent shooting frequency. It contributes to the management of disasters under the International Chart "Space and Major Disasters."
 
For its part, Alsat-1N is a miniaturized satellite with scientific mission and technology demonstration developed in the framework of the implementation of the cooperation agreement with the United Kingdom Space A (UKSA) by a team of Algerian-British researchers.

I had 6 in my calculations....Kuwait would go off....but no idea who would jump up. So keeping that in mind kept that way.

India will jump above Luxembourg, Aruba, Kuwait, Mauritius, Afghanistan & Lesotho

But Yemen (currently 162) will jump above India.. So 5 in total

We had a good win against Puerto Rico though they dint have many main players. It was a Ranking day match and winning was important for us...Now the point is whether we can jump into top 150 or still be outside 150....we need to play matches in the ranking day to get points and go up the ladder. For the records this is the best ranking in last 6 years....So good going for team but need to finish atleast by 140 at the end of the year to see the future and next year target to be near 100 or atleast 120.

According to my calculation, India should rise by 5 places to 147

I doubt you prediction about Paes. He didnt announce that Rio would be his last Olympics. Moreover post match he said that he will bounce back.. Slim chances of him playing in Tokyo 2020 still remains

Slim chance is still there.. What I feel is he won't coz of 2 reasons:

1) With all due respect, I don't see him getting back to top 10 to gain direct qualification

2) Purav Raja or Divij Sharan (if any one enters top 10) will be 1 team. If anyone else (Rohan or others) enter top 10, they would prefer someone younger rather than Paes to be their partner

I badly want India to be in the Singles next time hope these 4 make a mark and into the top tier and be there for long...

I am only concerned with the injuries.. Somdev got a serious injury when he was at his peak.. Now same has happened with Yuki

India now have new #2 Doubles player..

Rohan #17, Divj #68, Paes #72 and Purav #74 together with Saketh #115....

Are these going to be our next Olympians....

 

Definitely no Paes.. He will be 47 & I don't think he will be able to play at top level till 2020.. Even if he does, his rankings will not be in top 75..

I doubt about Bopanna.. He will be 40 by 2020..

Divij Sharan & Purav Raja will be our top doubles team by 2020.

In Singles, Saketh, Yuki, Ramkumar & Sumit Nagal should be able in top 100 provided they get enough support & funding

Brilliant Idea Sindo & good to hear that your passion for sports is back 

About the Events of the Week thread - Since KSR is not available, all the admins should take care of it. Any admin should be able to add a new event into that week post

Appreciate the decision of not putting Daily Results. It was time consuming and bit irritating. Because of which I was able to focus only on Badminton & La Liga results. This allows me to spend more time on other sport threads too

What about the idea of starting new National Threads for certain countries? Atleast threads like India, Italy & Serbia which are already above 50 pages

There should be a link in home page itself to redirect to IP Board (Discussion) & Discuz (Results)
