Sachin's retirement was emotional but Ashwin's retirement feels heavy😕.

The National Anthem playing at Tokyo with Neeraj Chopra at top 🇮🇳

This is India's moon-landing moment. One of the greatest days in Indian sport. Overjoyed. Feel like a child again. #NeerajChopra

4744 days

That’s how long it has been since we heard our national anthem being played in the Olympic Games

The wait, to say the least, is excruciating :/

[Joy Bhattacharjya @joybhattacharj]

Neeraj Chopra is now our only hope to make this our best Olympics ever, but during these Games something has definitely shifted, both inside the sporting ecosystem & in the general view of sport beyond cricket. Let's not forget how we felt watching our athletes give it their all!

After this Olympics, you have no excuse for continuing to misspell 'Odisha' as Orissa/Orrisa/Odhisa etc..

India had a rich history of winning gold in hockey before 1980. But there was a medal drought since 41 years hence even this bronze feels like a gold. Maybe this win reignites something.

Blunder of the games?

Serhiy Kulish was a silver medalist from the Rio Games. He qualified for the 50m air rifle final and was in medal contention(4th after 30 targets), he mistakenly shot at a different shooters target

He got 0 points and was soon eliminated in 8th place

Fave moment of the Olympics so far. Barshim (Qatar) and Tamberi (Italy) were tied in the high-jump final. The official is there talking about a prospective jump-off, but Barshim asks immediately: "Can we have two golds?" One look, no words exchanged, they know they're sharing it.

For the very first time Indian women hockey team have qualified for the Semi finals of #Olympics.

This is not reel. Real #ChakDeIndia from our girls. Even @iamsrk ala Kabir Khan wouldn’t have expected better. The most stunning effort this @Olympics #Tokyo2020

[Joy Bhattacharjya @joybhattacharj]

This is one of the greatest moments in Indian sporting history. India 1-0 over Australia in women's hockey. Am in tears!

[Harsha Bhogle @bhogleharsha]

Incredible from the girls. Haven't been this tense for a long time. What a fabulous display. Hockey is bringing the emotion back. Into the semi-final.
