You should consider gold medals only in a competition with so few countries .   It was   118  for India,  46 for Pakistan and  37 for Sri Lanka.

46 gold is not so bad , they are now down to 12 , clearly shows how their sports is going down.

Most tall young boys from SC will be thin at a young age but they fill up as they grow up. You cannot call them malnourished or thin. If Zoysa was thin, take a look at Brett Lee of 1997-99.

Zoysa was not thin after his early years.

Actually it is terrorism that destroyed Pakistan. In 2006 SAF they had pretty good medal tally 

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2006_South_Asian_Games

it was 184 while India was 214, SL was 177. It is from 2006 India emerged as big winner in SAF , the support from state governments has increased substantially to sportsmen .

no cant count medals like that.

 

a gold however lower in number is preeminent that any number of silvers and so on with bronze.

 

comparisons can only be with gold when all countries have secured some gold.

Nah, he's 6' and about. . I have shaked hands with him, and was significantly taller than me. I am 5' 9" BTW.

Anecdotal, i have a colleague who is around 6 foot i have 2-3 inches on him, he has a pic that he took in UK not a clear one to compare as there could be posture issues but Akthar was clearly couple of inches shorter, but he definitely is a big guy, built like a proper athlete

That makes Amitabh 5-11" which is ridiculously short for a guy who was considered 6 -3"

Gayle has clearly 1.5-2 inches on Yuvraj , that makes Yuvi 6 feet not 6-2"

If KP is 6-4" Then Yuvi is no taller than 6 feet

Posture, yuvi seems to have a slouching posture as always. Check the full pic here.

Now no proper info on foot wear on that pic..lets go with pics on the play grounds.

 

http://im.rediff.com/cricket/2014/apr/09kp1.jpg

 

In the above pic both are on sport shoes  and have proper straight posture, May be Kp has 2-3 inches on Yuvi max not like the pic above where it looks 5 inches...i think yuvi is a bit shorter than Gayle..but always has poor posture.

Gayle is definately no less than 6-3" could be 6-4 , the way he tower Amitabh clearly show this

Yuvi with Abhishek and Amitabh , Yuvi is no less than 6-2
