Very impressed with both

[Cricketics]

He came back in a do or die pressure game to win the match in a quarter finals. Not many Indians do that in their whole career in respective sports ina world event. Back this guy and he has a real chance to medal here.

 

What a performance Sen. well done. Jai Hind.

HISTORIC day for India today

Hockey - Beat Australia in Olympics for first time since 1972 and gets easier QF draw

Badminton - Lakshya Sen becomes FIRST Indian man to get into badminton semis in Olympics with 2 medal chances

Shooting - Manu goes into final with 2nd best score

Archery - Disappointed yes but FIRST semi appearance in history

If lashya develops a power shot he can be a killer and win gold.

Disagree, his smash is as good as any, he is the perfect mixture of power and defense.

I didn't want to post anything in the 3rd set. Total domination after a close first set... Lakshya  ... is a rock star!!!

[rollingstoned]

Done Dona donedone. Agla hakka noodle wale ko leke aao abhi semi mein.

You can just tell by looking at people's faces to know their clutch ability. Lakshya just looks clutch. 

 

I dint expect him to win cause the other fella is also really good but yes I am not surprised that he won either.

His name is his aim. 

[Gollum]

Lakshya you beauty.

[rollingstoned]

That one point in the second game was the point of the match as per me where he ran across and hit a smash after forcing the taiwaese to guess where he would hit it.

Just going by based what I saw. Brilliant player indeed. 

You probably know more. I am not familiar with badminton

 

But his mentality is top notch. This kid will go places.
