Not all have qualified for olympics. Also Hockey Team is participating.

And some medal hopes in Athletics too..Discus Throw, Triple Jump and 10k m womens run.

I think We will get medals in Tennis (Sania/Bhupati), Badminton (Saina), Boxing, Shooting and Wrestling.

Sania/Bhupati pair unlikely to qualify in Olympics. Right now We have only Paes has direct qualification in Tennis. Others are waiting for wild cards.

All I would say is, you are expecting a lot. We dont have any hopes in Atheltics as Indian standards are way below world standards and field hockey. Of course of best hope lies in Boxing and Shooting. We have an outside chance in Bandminton, Tennis and Wrestling.

We have bit of chance in Badminton, yes.

We have no chance in Tennis now. FedEx thinking of getting into doubles. And to make matters worse Bryan Bros. and Williams Sis. are thinking of making two teams of mixed doubles. Beat that. :)
