India in Rio Olympics 2016

Bad

Manoj kumar qualifies for Rio.Excellent job by him as he has been largely out of form for past 2 years.This shows he is returning to form at just the right time.He beat no. 2 seed at this competition in his preliminary round which is world no.6 at this point of time.So,really Commendable Job by him.

This is the biggest Indian contingent in history. Hopefully, we break our last Olympic record!!

Numbers are boosted because of 2 Hockey teams also besides a large contingent in Athletics. We will have to seriously analyse the actual medal prospects.

Bad

Our previous best in terms of contingent number was 83.We stand at 97 currently. Yes,we'll analyze the actual medal prospects once the Qualification deadline w.r.t to every Sport is over.That date is 11th July I think.Plz correct me if I am wrong.

Bad

As we speak,Vikas also books his place This takes our tally to 98.

munna sumit sangwan bout after 10pm

Bad

Sumit has lost his bout.He can still qualify if his opponent of today wins the whole competition.

Bad

There are 5 quota places,so 5th allocation is to the quarter final opponent of the boxer who wins the whole competition.
