This surely is the most important moment in independent India's sporting history. Abhinav Bindra became the first Indian to win an Olympics gold medal in an individual event. One only hopes that his stupendous achievement becomes a trendsetter for many more laurels to the country.After rather disappointing beginning to Beijing Olympics, an early morning news of Bindra's success today was a pleasant surprise to Indian fans. As the nation started pouring adulation on him, Saina Nehwal put up inspired performance to enter qua
rterfinals of Ladies Badminton by beating a more fancied opponent from Hong Kong. All eyes will be on her as she tries to enter the medal round tomorrow.Abinav's golden feat, however, failed to inspire the high-profile Indian Cricketers as they surrendered rather meekly to SriLanka in third Test at Colombo. The star studded Indian Team was tamed single handedly by a newcomer Lankan spinner, Ajantha Mendis. The Fab Foursome of Sachin, Dravid, Ganguly and Laxman fell miserably. Kumble was well below his best. Is it really time to bid good bye to some of these heavyweights?
