There are some in the discussion board who are trying to compare Asiads with cricket. Come on, guys. With the number of messages in this board compared with a message having news on test cricket, it would be clear that there can never be comparison.

Hello,my children are in school..you may be napunsak,why you think all are same like you ?I did not tell you to read again and again..many people find the information useful..Why some muslims burn in jealousy if India succeeds in any sphere ? I know you have migrated to the black settlements of the US and you are doing some back office coolie job over there..so,it is definite that you won't have passionate patriotism to be elated at the success of your country man...sports persons of the country need recognition and support,so I am doing it..
Hearty congratulations to Sodhi, Preeja, Kavita, Sudha and all the medal winners. When Preeja and Kavita made it a 1-2 for India, when Sudha fought back a late challenge from the chinese girl to win the gold, was there no official to hand them an Indian Flag for them to wave proudly. Poor Sudha went sprawling on the ground in exhaustion and not a soul to even lift her up and hug her for her achievement. Would this ever happen on a cricket field? SHAME on the officials who go with the athletes for a free foreign trip. Couldn't they even carry an Indian flag to the stadium. WHY DO WE SEND SUCH IDIOTS with the sportsmen/women? The Indian Federations are nothing but fiefdoms of petty politicians and the winning athletes get a Group 'D' or LDC/UDC jobs in railways. These winners deserve a better deal. However, many many many congratulations to all the medal winners again.
