Actually, perhaps most of the IND badminton fas are still living in era when badminton equalled Indonesia...

The INA players are much popular and known then most Chinese players....
Even I always cheer for them (provided they are not playing against Indians , Peter Gade or Misha Zilbermann)....

"I think Saina in women's singles and Jwala-Diju in mixed doubles have definitely good chance in Commonwealth Games. In men's singles I would like Chetan (Anand) to do well and win a medal," he said.

An interesting news article about India badminton taken from ESPNSTAR.com :

Badminton - The year that was

By Faisal Siddiqui

It was a mixed year for Indian badminton.
While Saina hogged lot of media spotlight,
the mixed doubles team of Jwala-Diju wasn’t far behind

A good run at the 2008 Beijing Olympics, better coaching and big events boosted the Indian badminton scenario this season. Early exits in China and Hong Kong Super Series, All-England and the Asian Championships may have been the low points, but Indian players did make their mark at several international tournaments.

After having followed the Commonwealth Games for so many year, it has been the same all these time (over the last quarter of a century):
Level 1: Malaysia (top nation)
Level 2: England
Level 3: India and Singapore
Level 4: Others

Let's hope that India can catch up with England at this coming 2010 Commonwealth Games.
