nitinsanker 179 Posted May 3, 2019 #7963 Share Posted May 3, 2019 prannoy loses ....... I am a bit frustrated with badminton currently ....none of the men seem to improving I was hoping that one of them would also move into the top 10 along with Srikanth and create the dynamics like the women but unfortunately prannoy , sai or sameer seem to be able to move to the next level strength does not come from physical capacity but from an indomitable will. - Gandhi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nitinsanker 179 Posted May 5, 2019 #7968 Share Posted May 5, 2019 (edited) Our best chances are in Wrestling , shooting and boxing for 2020 ( we have improved compared to Rio ) ..... with possible medals in Badminton and weightlifting ( we are at the same level as last time ) .......... we have long shots in athletics ( weare better off than last time ) , hockey ( better off than last time ) and archery( a little worse off than last time ) .......................... but tennis we have really no hopes ( we are much worse off than Rio ) ........ My take on wrestling wrestling I hope we can qualify at least 4 in women and 4 in free style and 2 in greco ( based on the asian champ results )- this is compared to 6 last time ( we had 2 pluses due to doping disqualifications and then we lost 1 due to doping and ended up with 7 ) ........so 10 would be great ......... I feel if we qualify 10 we can get 1-3 medals this time . I have marked what I believe is our best chances in yellow to qualify this time - I am marking only their last 2 years victories here ....... Freestyle 57 ravi ( u23 world silver , 5th at the asian championships )/ rahul aware ( commonwealth G, asian championship - B in 61 ) 65 bajrang ( S - world championship medallist , asian games champion, asian championship G ) 74 amit dhankar ( S - asianchampionship ) / sushil Kumar ( commonwealth 2018 G ) 86 deepak punia ( Silver - world juniors , asian championship B ) 97 Satyawrat ( B - asian championship ) 125 sumit ( B - asian championship , 5th - world 2018 ) Women 50 Vinesh ( asian games G, asian championship B in 53 ) 53 Babita ? ???????( Commonwealth S ) 57 pooja ( world B ) 62 Sakshi ( asian championship - B ) 68 Divya ( asian games - B, asian championship B ) 76 Krishna Bishnoi ????? ( commonwealth B ) Greco 60 Gyanender ( asian championshp B ) 67 77 Gurpreet ( Silver - asian championship S, 5th - Asian Games ) / Sajjan Kumar ( S - World Juniors , 5th - U23 ) ) 87 Sunil (Silver - asian championship S ) 97 harpreet ( asian games 5th ) 130 aryan panwar ????? ( asian junior bronze 2018 ) will give my take on qualification chances in shooting next if you found this list useful Edited May 5, 2019 by nitinsanker strength does not come from physical capacity but from an indomitable will. - Gandhi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sameerph 5 Posted May 5, 2019 #7969 Share Posted May 5, 2019 Just a few points from your wrestling predictions- I feel Ravi or Sandeep Tomar have better chances to qualify than Amit Dhankar/ Sushil im 74 kgs. Ravi is pretty good, lost a very close one for bronze at Asian champs against a world medalist. He can be a surprise package. Vinesh has confirmed that she will remain in 53 kgs. It is very difficult for her to cut her weight at every tournament now. She will take some time to adjust to the new category. Will know till world champions where she stands. As for medals at Tokyo, Bajrang and Vinesh seem to be only real medal hopes with outside chance for Pooja Dhanda and Sakshi Malik if they get lucky with the draw.

sanjaydas 9 Posted May 5, 2019 #7970 Share Posted May 5, 2019 Yes, Nitin. Agreed in Wrestling. Now shooting we have 5. Last time we had 12. 7 to go. Boxing is yet to be confirmed in Tokyo. So let's keep it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
