Tokyo: There are more mistakes than hits for Indian archers who eventually become “only tourists” in Tokyo, return from the Olympics without medals anymore.
Deepika Kumari cannot obtain an Indian Olympic medal that is difficult to understand but the most decorated Chinese archer to become the first Indian to make a quarter.
But the silver layer came from the Pravin debut Jadhav, the son of the wage labor from the Satara district held by Maharashtra.
Not only 25 years old on it among Indians in the ranking round, Archer Army shows a good shooting before going to the world number one Brady Ellison in round two.
Ianu Das provides “Oh Momari” for Indians when he knocked down the Olympic champions and the world Oh Jin Hyek to make pre-quarter-finals for the second consecutive time in the match but only to lose five times Olympic Veteran Takaharu Furukawa.
The biggest letdown is a pair of archery strength – Deepika Kumari and Asan Das – who cannot overcome the pressure factor despite having an experience of five Olympics among them.
Overall, it is the story of ‘Korean-phobia’ from Indians.
Whether it’s deepics, who entered with world number one tags, a male or pair team, all four archers faltered in Korean obstacles, in their respective quarter-finals.
Fresh from winning the World Cup gold medal this year, Deepika disappointed a big, especially in the individual match against Korea aged 20 years, the gold medalist finally, and lost in six minutes.
On the QF mixed team too, Deepika limited regret images and could not find a ring in 10 even when he was with Jadhav lost to their Korean rivals.
After India’s campaign, Deepika and Asan further ventured their anger, dividing their mixed team partnerships.
Former World Champion Dola Banerjee said it was a mistake in preparation if Deepika did not practice with his team-mate.
“I don’t know whether he practices with other people or not.
But it will be a big mistake if he chooses only a watershed to practice,” said the 2007 world champion to PTI.
“During our days we practiced with all our teammates.
We never knew who would we play.
Knowing that you are the only woman’s archer who represents India, you must be trained with your teammate.” There was nothing wrong with giving Jadhav the opportunity when they left by the Fita Rules, he added.
“Yes, you have the option to keep in pairs with your original partner but each country sends to their top ranking players according to the rules.” What if the waters and deepics lose too? The impact will be severe.
No one wants to sweep the risk, “he said, ending the drama.
So, what’s wrong for Indians? Their match game scores might hide this, but Indians gave initial indications, limiting the flop show in a rating round which proved to be firm..
Digging A little further will reveal how the World Cup gold medalist or has been cracked under pressure on his team-mate – a 39-year-old Jadhav rookie and veteran Rai.
Rated 72-arrow Round Das found his most rigid competitors in Jadhav.
They left with neck-and-neck with a score of 329 each after 36 arrows .
Placing this in perspective, a unknown Singh Singh Champia has shot 678 to complete the second in Beijing 2008, tet The famous Indian archer fire is not close.
They are combined for the ninth ranking for team events, because deepics are too finished in the same place for individuals, and it is no different for the mixed team.
This proved to be a disaster when they drew the top seed (Korea) for potential quarter-final matching.
“We can be more calculative in round rounds.
The coach plays a big role there and I think we can avoid ninth,” Dola added.
Experts blame the system because they cannot create a supply line and “let the top players estimate the term”.
“When the federation listens to archer requests then it is a disaster.
There must be someone who is responsible for sitting on such (former Secretary General) Paresh Nath Mukhere who made a decision and also stopped after London 2012.
Our players run the show now,” said the former coach , “During the period of Paresha, there will be a national rank tournament almost every month, something that has stopped since.
Only one citizen is not enough,” another official said.
