For Olympics qualification rankings only 1 competition is remaining: Delhi World Cup in March. A nation can win a quota via ranking only in events where it has not won any quota. So, we are eligible only in 25m M, Trap M, Trap W and Skeet W. No chance in women events. In Trap, a number of high ranking athletes are yet to qualify and there is only 1 spot remaining at European Championship, so no chance there as well. Regarding Anish, though he is ranked highest at present, the amount of points on offer at Delhi is much larger than his point total, so if one of the chasers do finish substantially higher than Anish, he might miss out. Most likely, we will be swapping Chinki's quota for another quota. We can use Manu and Yashaswini's quota in 10m and Rahi's quota in 25m with Manu starting in both. Regarding the swap, we cannot swap across genders, so that leaves us with only 2 options: 50x3 and Shotgun events. If Anjum is selected in 10m, we don't need another quota in 50x3, as she will start alongside Tejaswini. But if Apurvi and Elavenil are selected in 10m, then most likely, we will swap Chinki's quota for second quota in 50x3. Plus, I think even if we chose Elavenil in 10m and Anjum in 50x3, if we want, we can select Anjum for the Mixed Team event.

From whatever little I have been able to find about him, he is based in Germany at present and has been taking part in domestic meets.

Any update on Fouaad Mirza? When is the new deadline for achieving MER?

Yes, I think his focus in short term is High Jump only.

Tejaswin Shanker has broken the national record for Indoor Heptathlon. This was his first international Heptathlon event. He has the potential to become a decent Decathlete.

Not sure about it but I think it is Islamic months. Awwal means Best/first in Urdu. Also, Hijjah could be the month of Hijra, the journey of Mohammed from Mecca to Medina.

Honestly, I don't think vaccination of athletes is going to be bottleneck. I am sure IOC can muster 50k doses easily to vaccinate all the athletes and support staff. I think the main issues are how much of Japan is vaccinated by Olympics, qualification events and quarantine issues.

Majority of the qualification is through ranking only. Only 4 quotas per event are through continental qualifiers. We can see those quotas as universality places to promote the sport.

Satwik is simply amazing. He has the talent, temperament and fitness to be at the top for a long time. Let us hope he fulfills his potential.

As a candidate, yes it won't make him a bigger threat but it would make his grip over his supporters even stronger and you don't want a situation where the next Republican primary is decided by a Trump endorsement.

As I said, Republican establishment will lead the crusade against Trump. If Dems and RE are still afraid of a Trump run for Presidency in 2024, then I must say impeachment would make him a bigger threat.

Republican Establishment knows it has lost. They tried to stop him from becoming Republican nominee in 2016, failed and then tried to control him and again failed. But now that he has lost, they will have their revenge. They will make sure that any remaining Trump supporter will become persona non-grata in Republican party. Of course, there will be a significant portion of Republican party that is still firmly with Trump, but RE would be hoping that with Trump out of picture, they can force a similar split in Democratic party also with Progressives going against Democratic Establishment.

Kala Namak literally means Black Salt in Hindi. The term is used for almost all the varieties of rock salts from Himalayas. Curiously, the variety that is the most common is pink in colour.

I am interested for the contest but almost surely won't be online on 2nd.

20 from Jakarta plus team events in the 12 Olympic events would bring us to 32. For the last event, I think it would either be 300m Women's Rifle and replacement of one of the running events with Women's running event for full gender equality or another mixed team event.
