Yes Denmark was missing - but in the Olympics you have more gimme games -vs the Asian games where the number of top Chinese, Korean, Japanese, Malaysian, Indonesians are higher. In the Olympics you can only have top 2 from each of these countries. Yeah massive achievement... There's no easy draw in Asian games when it comes to Badminton rollingstoned 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bharathh Posted October 7, 2023 Share Posted October 7, 2023 (edited) Best performers Kabbadi, Cricket, Compound Archery, Squash and Equestrian, Athletics. Compound Archery, Equestrian, Rowing, and Squash IMO were beyond expectations. The Equestrian team could have won even more if their horses were not disqualified. The equestrian team had to fight a case to represent the country at the Asian games. They did amazingly well! The rowing team deserves kudos for their performance as well. Athletics was amazing as well. Despite facing a huge challenge from Bahrain, Qatar and Kazakhstan's imports they still managed to beat most of them and win tons of medals. Some of our field stars could have performed better though - esp in Long and Triple Jump Gold in Badminton was unexpected. Would have liked Sindhu to at least get a bronze. Prannoy would have gone further if not for his back. Biggest disappointments Aquatics not winning even 1 medal from 33 events Weightlifting - For the small squad who were clearly just there for the participation including our best lifter Mirabai Chanu who was clearly not ready for competition Boxing - esp men underperforming and our women champs not able to enforce their authority and reputation as world champs Wrestling for how underwhelming the wrestlers looked compared to the gold and silver medalists, TT for only getting 1 bronze. Manika Batra underperforming. Pity Achanta and possibly Sathiya going out without a medal Indian women at Hockey for their shocking performance in the semis Recurve archery for the individual and mixed team performance Why were they there? Not sure why we had to send a 16 member Rugby 7s team, 11 member JuJitsu team (they didn't even win 1 matchup), Taekwondo (1 win in all the events) Edited October 7, 2023 by bharathh Tillu, rollingstoned, Gollum and 2 others 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if competition is tougher here, I think the pressure in Olympics makes it tougher. Just look at our world class shooters and how they wilt away in Olympics, mental toughness needs to be at another level.

Just look at our world class shooters and how they wilt away in Olympics, mental toughness needs to be at another level. Actually if you take a close look at the Shooting medals, almost all our golds have come from the team during qualification (which don't exist at the Olympics). After qualification to the finals, our shooting team has converted their sometimes WR quailification scores into individual medals relatively few times. Even during the Olympics I've noticed that we usually do really well in the qualifications to the finals only to fade away in the finals itself - often coming 4th or 5th despite having a good lead going in. The men were particularly bad at this this time. The trend continues. Hopefully the number of golds will give them confidence though. The women were much better except for Manu Bhaker, 5th from qualifying first Gollum 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So true, they have so many medals. Swimming is one sport which at world stage is still dominated by white people.Chinese have overtaken everyone in Diving for sure. Greg Louganis to me last great american/white diving champion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waise bhi paxtani athlete gold medal bechne china kee markit mein chale jate to eat some buns.. India ne toh es games mein Poyzz ka dhaaga khol dia.
