It was probably the most memorable performance of these games. Sable had the entire stadium rooting for him.

He would have won Bronze at Tokyo with this performance , unlike the Triple-Jump duo who were no where close.
No doubt i am extremely delighted with the performance of our athletes but this victory should be taken with a word of caution.this is the first time i am noticing that in multiple games that players are literally giving up when facing Indian players, even before the match is over. whether this is peculiar to this CWG or it happened before, i don't know.
What was contribution of archery and shooting before ? Those have been removed now . Seems like wrestling and boxing dominance is very recent . And we have started getting medals in olympics in those events .No doubt i am extremely delighted with the performance of our athletes but this victory should be taken with a word of caution.
In CWG games we have been in top 5 medal list for almost 30 years but we are not witnessing similar performance in the much larger Olympic games.
We are dominating only those sports where Olympic heavyweights are absent,eg Iran,Ex soviet states,China,Japan,Turkey in weightlifting and Wrestling.China and the US in shooting or Cuba in boxing.
We are mostly not winning those sports where Australia,UK and Canada are dominating.
So there is a lot of work that has to be done.
Archery has been featured only twice in the CWG,1982 and 2010.In total we have won 8 medals.What was contribution of archery and shooting before ? Those have been removed now .
