No. Needs to win sf or repechage 

[deepdynamo]

Bajrang Semifinal is against Rio Olympic Bronze medal winner.

[neel roy]

Honest opinion Bajrang got lucky. He didnt look his best. Next opponent is tough

Cricket is both physically and mentally draining. Comparing cricket fitness with hockey is like comparing fitness of a chess player with a hockey player. Chess grandmasters need 10 hours of sleep before the big games in order to stay mentally sharp, hockey players don't need such intense concentration level.

And other sports are not mentally draining? Do you know how much strategy goes behind them? Lol at this fantasy created for one og the laziest sport, invented by rich people specifically because it was easier and less taxing both mentally and physically

People get offended in gully cricket/games and we want to believe that sports at top level is not mentally draining.

Commies have no clue either. They are saying not sure if there will be any play tomorrow. Olympics organizers haven’t announced anything yet. So players have no clue either, at this moment they are playing to be ahead today but rhey know they might have full or half day.

 

Hard on players. Just maintain your lead is the best strategy.

Okay. Hope Bajrang attacks more in first round though.

 

In both his bout today, he held back in first round and attacked in second round.

 

3 PM IST is the Semifinal time. Full support to Bajrang!

But every sport is mentally draining. I have seen way more fights and offence over football and hockey even in gully sports.

Iranian (who bajrang beat just now) are by default tough...

So bajrang should have chances I think

How good is Australia? 42 medals, 17 gold medals in total so far, and still number 4 in the world, nothing to do with being a "rich" country, It has everything to do with quality of living, education, nutrition etc.

 

Australia does not even give its athletic much for winning gold, this is also because of Australia's competitive nature in everything they do.

So, we have three clear medal prospectus going in last 2 days of Olympics

- Bajrang will get 2 chances for medal
- Aditi is tied 2nd in Golf
- Neeraj Chopra Javelin throw final

 

In an ideal world, we are coming back with 8 medals from Tokyo.

All sports are mentally draining. Some has to focus for 15 minutes, some one odd hour and some for hours.

Why cant India be even half as good as the Aussies?

 

this depends on being rich, doggie.

 

Why can't you be even one fourth as good as my neighbourhood stray?

 

Now shoo doggie, shoo
