MS - K. Srikanth, Kashyap Parupalli WS - Saina Nehwal, P.V. Sindhu MD - Manu Attri / Sumeeth Reddy, Akshay Dewalkar / Pranaav Jerry Choppra WD - Jwalla Gupta / Ashwini Ponnapa, Sikki Reddy. MX - Kona Tarun / Sikki Reddy, Ashwini Ponnapa / Manu Attri
Is this a confirmed list? . Announcement made by BAI? Prannoy still not yet recovered? Just wanted to know.
yes this is the confirmed lists Unsure about Prannoy but this is the lists if players released by the Indian sports website so it has to be the correct lists. Nothing is mentioned about Prannoy there.
Ok... India vs. Mas in the 1st round. Mas pretty much has the edge in MS, MD, WD and XD. India is countering with WS, WD... Advantage : Mas. If LCW by any chance loses to KS, then India has a glimpse of hope. The one who draws first blood has the momentum. India must win all 3 : MS, WS, WD.
Corrections to India team [MENTION=121556]blabl[/MENTION], Hi Blabl there are some corrections to the above names. I have got the list from BWF http://bwfbadminton.org/file.aspx?id=633400&dl=1 MS - K Srikanth, Prannoy, Kashyap WS - Saina N, PV Sindhu MD - Manu Attri/ Sumeeth Reddy, Akshay Dewalkar / Pranav JC WD- Ashwini P/ Jwala G, Pradnya Gadre/ Sikki Reddy XD - Arun Vishnu/ Aparna Balan Total 15 players. They have options for XD From above doubles players. India or Malaysia are going home early.
This list is incomplete and wrong. HS Prannoy, Aparna Balan, Arun Vishnu and Pradnya Gadre are in the 15-member team. Tarun Kona is not in the team. However, it is not yet clear if HS Prannoy will play as there is no official word yet on whether he has fully recovered from the injury at the Singapore Open 2015. Pradnya Gadre and Siki Reddy will be the No.2 WD pair. Arun Vishnu and Aparna Balan will be the XD pair.
the edited india team players lists Sorry for the confusion caused. Here is the edited lists. MS - K. Srikanth, Kashyap Parupalli WS - Saina Nehwal, P.V. Sindhu MD - Manu Attri / Sumeeth Reddy, Akshay Dewalkar / Pranaav Jerry Choppra WD - Jwalla Gupta / Ashwini Ponnapa, Sikki Reddy / Pradnya Gadre. MX - Aparna Balan / Arun Vishnu.
They should try pranav/ash or some others for XD though we have very little chance to win XD.... arun/aparna playing very very very badly these days
I would like to add 2-3 more 'very' in the above post Well I believe it should be AP/PVS in WD and JG/PJC or JG/AD in XD Akshay playing well lately!! And jwala is a fan XD player.. And this will also avoid AP to play 2 matches!!!
Jwala is one of the best when it comes to net . She is a rare gifted talent but not even a school player when goes back . WD can not survive on this . XD can but as soon as playing synch is broken by the opponent then it will be only mins before they XD loses .
You do realize that by terming her, "one of the best", you are putting her in the same category as Yu Yang, Zhao Yunlei, Liliyana Natsir, Bao Yixin.
Talented is so so subjective. Performance is only this that is objective. And for me, she ain't that talented as the group I just listed. Fitness is one's own responsibility. As is injury. We Indians should especially not give this excuse of fitness, as our only medal in Olympics, came from the opponent retiring hurt. Jwala may be talented for normal Indian standards. But for the world standards, she ain't coming any where near Liliyana Natsir or Zhao Yunlei.
Please .. I think this is not at all necessary. That is past and if opponent walks away without playing the second game, that was not the problem of the person who received the bronze. If you stay in the court for the complete match, then the person has rights to say anything. So, this incident need not be discussed in this thread where sudhirman cup rosters are listed. Just my opinion.
@Oldhand and @blabl , both have given separate lists. @blabl has not included H.S.Prannoy whereas @Oldhand has included his name. Which one is correct?
Umm.. I have never blamed Saina, or belittled her achievement. Hence, I would like to continue logical consistency; It is Jwala's job to handle her fitness. Rather it is more of her job to handle her fitness than it is an athlete's job to take care of injuries, precisely because while injuries can be accidental, fitness is much more predictable. Anyways, if you are not good at the first aspect of any sport, it is shame to begin with. Even, taking into account her lack of fitness, she has never shown much talent to be included in the league of Liliyana or Zhao Yunlei.
