India is having a population of 125 cr.but we have not managed to have world class atheletes. this is due to cricket which hogs the limelight both in terms in money and sponsorship. we need to develop our strengths and focus on improving the standard of sports in the country .

why dont you practice and go play fool? you are one of those whiners who will cry for poor performance but would not do anything about it. and by the way cricket is played seriously by 10 countries, how many sports in olympics have good competetive teams from 10 nations. it wont matter, coz you have quite a tiny brain to comprehend, you are just a crybaby

Mark,how many among the so-called 10 test playing countries play it seriously?Don't just look in wikipedia and blabber.Nobody except the people in the Indian sub-continent take cricket seriously.
Who cares about how many gold medals other countries like China win... They would never win a Cricket world Cup even in the next 1000 yrs & India has already won 2 Cricket World Cups!!! India is a Cricket dominated country and it should stick to its strenght & play to their strength. Prepare flat and spin friendly tracks in India & win all Cricket matches in India & Indian ppl would be happy. Cricket is our only game. Who is bothered about the Olympics!! Who cares whether India wins an Olympic medal or not. Long Live BCCI & Long live Sharad Pawar ji.

Long live BCCI & Long Live 'Shree Sharad Pawar Ji'.
Re: MEDAL HOPE

also vijendar and shooter ranjan sodhi. no hopes in athletics but wrestler should also bring in a medal.
Bhupathi Bopanna is having a match against weaker opponent in the second round compared to the gruelling fight they had undergone against Miriyani and_Bury in the first round.
Paes_Vardhan will be fighting it out against French duo of Llorda_and_Tsonga.
Jayanta,Rahul and Tarundeep will be appearing in 1/32 of archery individual,if they win,they will have to play 1/16.I just hope that our archers will not blame weather again like how Dhoni blames the pitch if India loses.Weather will be same for all the archers with same wind speed and olympic committee will not perhaps fix some special cyclonic wind for our archers .By the way,Sumit Sangwan had to face the music of unfriendly_wind when he was deprived of a much deserved win in his boxing bout.
There is Swuro ,the lowest ranked female archer in the fray as well in 1/32 round,and hopefully 1/16 as well !
No much hope,but in 69 kg group B ,Ravi kumar will be lifting weight.
Jwala_Diju will play in an inconsequential badminton mixed doubles group match against Korean opponents.They already lost the 2 matches played earlier,and it will be just a formality to take part in the ultimate one.
Kashyap has an easy match against Nguyen_T of Vietnam and he is sure to move to next round.
Our rowers are mystery elements for us.They are trying their best.In double skull,Indian pair will be fighting in repechages_round for a place in quarter finals.In single skulls,Sawarn_Singh will row his boat in quarter finals.

Devendro_Singh and Manoj_Kumar will be boxing and it is hoped that they will get fair decision to move forward to next round.
Two most beautiful Indian women in the squad ,Jwala_and_Ashwini will play their last group match in women’s badminton.They are in a good position after beating the top seeded Chinese_Taipei pair of the group yesterday and is almost certain to reach quarter finals round.
Garima_Chaudhury will take part in 69 kg Judo 1/32 round just for fun.With the level of competition,I donot think she can win a medal.Any how,we should not be miser in our wishes for her as she may move upto few rounds and so let us hope for the best.

Hey ..dont delete my comments dude ..you are doing a great job..continue doing it ..but I still maintain that Kashyap is going to face World number 11 Nguyen_T of vietnam and it is not going to be an easy round. You google and check it for yourself.
