India wins its sixth medal (Sushil Kumar, Silver, Wrestling) and doubles its tally at the Olympics. I hope this piece of information would drive the message home. One more thing: Rome was not built in a day.

This blog is nothing but big bakwas. Jab angoor nahi milta to jaroor khatta hi hota hai. Pandey ji we lost all the games in hockey.... Do you think this was due to china? Not a single gold in this Olympic still we are happy.Compare our medals with china......we r no where.   Do not try to compare ourselves with china because we Indians are thousand of miles backward from china.

Team India's performances abroad may not be very good as compared to its performances on the home turf, but to say that the Team India is useless abroad is taking things too far. India has performed well overseas also. Only recently it tamed the Lankan Lions in their own backyard. In the context of Great Britain, I would like to point out that the Island Nation has been performing consistently well at the Olympics and various other top sport and athletic events all across the globe. Further, an individual or a team would do well if the same has it what it takes to do better than others. Friendly surroundings and home supporters would motivate to a certain extent only. A nation like the UK, and/or an athlete like Bolt would dazzle no matter where they could be performing. No wonder, they are 'proven' champions.

There  is evidence to prove that an athletes performance is improved from the response it gets from the crowd. Why is it that the Indian cricket team performs well at home and is useless abroad?

Home advantage works only to a certain level. If an athlete is not best on a given day, he won't win, no matter what.

I find these games a waste of money. I don't watch them.

Britain managed to get the medals as they have home advantage. As for India, we are not a sporting nation and we don't need to.

I fully subscribe to your views now, Mr Lal! You are 100% right when you say that we must walk in the footsteps of the US & the UK, instead of China where there isn't even a hint of freedom & democracy

Sanjay sir ji. Free world ( USA and Great Britain) have 90 and 59 medals between them. The autocratic world of China has only 83 medals. Why  don't we Indians, belonging to free world, learn from USA and GB and produce medal winning athletes ? Let us ignore China. Let us make USA and GB our role model for producing Olympic medal winners.
