Re: Indian Sports and Entertainment Industry
In the Shanghai leg of the world cup, India won the Recurve men's team gold, women's team bronze, mixed bronze and women's individual silver. We won a bunch of compound golds too, but compound is not part of upcoming Paris olympics. We seem to slowly increase our focus on recurve too after dominati...

WorldSteel reported Indian steel output for March recently, at 12.7MT. This makes the full 2023-24 fiscal year total a colossal 143.5MT . How large is 144MT ? I posted about this on Twitter .

Some of these suggestions seem very tactically focused. Let me present a larger view of the Indian economy: * India has a $14 trillion GDP (PPP). By a distance the third largest behind China and USA, well beyond #4 Japan ($6.5 trillion). This is well known. * Less well known is that among the top 10...

The Kabaddi match should never have been that close. The Iranians look way fitter than us. Same with the women's team. The Iranian coach said as much before the final - that India were technically superior so they resorted to fielding the fittest possible team they could in order to win by attrition.
