They do no have shooting range in Birmingham so they would exclude shooting ? They could have organised Shooting in some other place in England. Do not tell us that England does not have shooting setup anywhere in the country. If Gold coast could have this facility as well as all previous organisers, they why not Birmingham ? Moreover it is known for years that Birmingham were to organise these games. Even then they could not arrange for these facilities ? It is the most ridiculous excuse I have come across. india lobbied hard and original plan was to hold the shooting and archery section within india in Feb 2022 and include the medals in the final tally but due to covid that event got cancelled. the next games in Australia are trying to do away with shooting AND wrestling.. it’s a travesty when swimming and cycyling have to hundreds of medals available. squarecut 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

India should get the organising rights to commonwealth games and organise it without swimming, cycling and gymnastics and include Kabaddi, Khokho etc. Forward Defence 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LordPrabhzy Posted August 6, 2022 Share Posted August 6, 2022 Funny how Canada and Australia use Asians in their table tennis and badminton teams maybe India should do the same and offer passports and cash to sprinters in Caribbeans.. Atleast we might get more medals in athletics Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LordPrabhzy Posted August 6, 2022 Share Posted August 6, 2022 3 TT matches involving Indians in the last 30 mins.. BBC feed remains empty but they will never show these matches. They rather have a feed of a empty court than show Indians playing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So naturally the same results are obtained. Indian women need to acquire killer instinct, finishing abilities etc if they have to do justice to their abilities. It is a cultural thing for Indians and it will take a while before Indians in general and Indian sportspersons in particular will get over it. I am not disappointed, because I have been witness to such results for last 50 years. No problem. We will overcome it soon enough. The men seem to have got better at it for sure. squarecut 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can already see signs of Indians getting better in atheletics thanks to special efforts being made in these sports. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
