Maybe the indian organizations are confused in between AD/PJC and MA/SB.R and what about XD AP/TK are just faltering again n again...they should try Any new pairings....in WD they might be in a dilemma in between siki/pradnya n aparna/siki or aparna/prajakta....
In XD they can field akshay/pradnya... I think this pair is stronger than kona/ponnappa.... and in WD of course the defending champions... in MD really there will be a confusion ... in terms of experience akshay/pranav... in terms of ranking Manu/reddy... but we don't expect any podium finish from MD...
XD...Ashwini/Arun vishnu... wats your suggestion about this combination... better than current top pair or not?...
I suggest....they should have a match between akshay/pranav..n sumeeth/mannu As well between ashwini/arun n akshay/pradanya...but WD is sure...actually at that time I forgot jwala/ashwini..hahahah how poor me

Indian Team For Glasgow Commonwealth Games Men's 1.Kashyap 2.Srikanth 3.GuruSaiDutt 4.Pranaav jerry chopra 5.Akshay Dewalker Women's 1.Saina Nehwal 2.Sindhu 3.Thulasi 4.Jwala Gutta 5.Ashwini Ponnappa No Participation in XD... Good luck Indian team...
Yes ...that was a good decision.... Thulasi and gurusaidutt stands a fair chance...as compared to XD....now let's see how far PC can sail...
I don't know whether srikanth will be in the team after reading his condition today. Hope he will recover soon and bring laurels to the country. WTH? No participation in XD category from india?. Very good.
I think it's a poor decision. Unlike the Super Series & other events, this is a different event. It is a multi-sports event. Every medal that's earned pushes the country higher on the Medals Table. The XD pairs in India undoubtedly are below par. However, the level of competition isn't that high at the CWG and hence a bronze medal in the XD was well within sight. OTOH, in the WS, Saina and Sindhu have already been entered and being the top 2 seeds, they'll certainly be on opposite ends of the draw. However, if Thulasi meets either of these 2 in the earlier rounds, that'll certainly be a waste of a spot. It would've surely been more wise to rather enter atleast 1 pair in the XD field.
Well I believe that PC will meet either of Kristy/li Michael in the early rounds and if she able to male an upset than there is surely a chance all India podium finish..she herself will be seeded and I don't think it would be all India battle before sf (if thulasi reaches their)...srikanth's issue is surely a matter of concern... Mr epic do u think AP/TK can battle past adcocks or Robert/Imogen..or Singaporean/Malaysians..they have to fight any of the seededs in the early rounds coz of their lower ranking's..
