our squash team had been impressive in this games... both womens and mens final... with already 2 medal in bag... they had been best performer for us so far
we won bronze in swimming 50m breaststroke with sandeep sejwal... i always thought when shall be the day we get to see swimming medal winners..good to see one this time
@shankar Yeah great performance. Sejwal is the third Indian swimmer to win medals for India in Asian Games history. Khazan Singh (1986) and Virdhwal Khade (2010) were the other two.
New format of boxing makes it more like Professional Boxing with no headgear. Also emphasis is on stamina, feet movement, arm/body movement and intention on attack. Our Indian boxers are literally tired by last round and just defending or ducking with poor body movement will not take them anywhere. We need to go back to basics-maybe new coach who has experience in Professional circuit. I was shocked why Akhil Kumar was selected? His style will not take us anywhere. they should have given chance to some youngster. So far I am impressed with Devendro Singh and Shiv Thapa and they can do well in new format.
Squash Team has done us proud. Tennis players are doing well too. 5 losses in Badminton today for India.
Badminton - one level extra performance required to sustain, Fight and dominate China..Thailand. Phillipines.. They are quick, fast and strong. Lucky India gives tough fight to them
