Every country choose the venue of Home tie as per strenght of Home players and discomfort of visiting team. But All India Tennis Association morons always follow अतिथि देवो भव: to the detriment of Indian team only. Mahesh Bhupati request of Grass surface has been negated. Indian request of Hot Chennai city as venue has also been refused. Hard Court Khanna Stadium of Delhi will be the venue in salubrious February weather to provide maximum comfort to visiting Italy team.
Jeremy Lalrinnunga wins India’s maiden gold medal at Youth Olympic Games
India won their first-ever gold medal at a Youth Olympic Games with Jeremy Lalrinnunga clinching the yellow metal in Men's 62kg weightlifting.
India had already eclipsed its best-ever tally at a Youth Olympic Games on Day 2 of the extravaganza and by the end of it, had further return to rejoice. Having won three silver medals, India won their first gold medal at the 2018 Youth Olympic Games in Buenos Aires, Argentina with Jeremy Lalrinnunga lifting 150kg on his last attempt for a combined 274kg. This is India’s first-ever gold medal at the Youth Olympics. In the two editions prior to this, India’s best performance was two medals in the 2014 Youth Olympics at Nanjing, China.
In Men’s 62kg Group A weightlifting, Jeremy posted successful attempts of 120kg and 124kg in snatch and 142kg and 150kg in clean & jerk. With his best successful attempts of 124kg in snatch and 150kg in clean & jerk for a combined 274kg, the 15-year-old won the gold medal. Toptas Caner of Turkey won the silver medal for a combined lift of 263kg and Estiven Jose Manjarres of Colombia won the bronze medal with 260kg.
The gold further highlights Lalrinnunga’s mettle following his World Youth silver medal.
India had won three silver medals earlier with Tushar Mane (10m Air Rifle), Tababi Devi (44kg Judo) and Mehuli Ghosh (10m Air Rifle).
India are represented by 46 athletes – their largest contingent – at the third Youth Olympic Games across 13 disciplines.
Mehuli Ghosh seems to be another of those chokers.It is too early to say this as she is just 17 years old but it seems to be the case as of now.
She was almost 1 point ahead with just two shots to go with just one compeititor remaining.
A score of 10 is not that hard to get and infact 10 is a part score.
so,at this moment with a lead of almost 1 point,she shoot a total of 19.5 in last two shots which means 9.2 and 9.3 which is true sign if choking under pressure.

Great job by her.
He won by a margin of almost 8 points which is phenomenal.
We are currently at the 3rd Position on the Medal Tally which is amazing.
By the the end of the games if we mange to finish in the top 10 then it would be historic.
All the best to him for future endeavors.
