Guys,in World Championship Table Tennis,our WOMEN"S Doubles pair of Manika Batra and Mouma Das reached the Quarter Finals where they lost.This has never been done in past so amazing achievement by them.
In Athletics, Nirmala(Women"s 400m)clocked 51.28 sec and thereby qualified for World Championships.She had also qualified for Olympics.
Also,Annu Rani(Women"s Javelin Throw,bettered her own National Record by throwing 61.86m thereby making her qualify for Athletics World Championships as well)
Neeraj Chopra(already qualified for World Championships and our best hope for an Olympic Medal in 2020 threw 85.63m in the current event.Even though his Personal best is 86.48m).Just to put it in context a throw of 85.63M Would have fetched him a BRONZE MEDAL AT RIO OLYMPICS.So,he needs to bring in more consistency in his game as he has 2 throws of over 85m.He can get us the Elusive Olympics Athletics Medal so Watch out for him in future.

India's result so far:-
1st Match India lost to Belgium 1-2.
2nd Match India drew with Germany 2-2.
3rd Match(Today) India beat Belgium 3-2.
This shows how much we have progressed.We are at par with World's best now.
Everybody knows about Germany but Belgium is current Olympics Silver Medalist.
We need to be slightly more composed and calm.
India missing its 3 main players in Sreejesh,Raghunath and Nikkin.
