WATCH HOW SUJEET KALKAL TURNED A 9-2 DEFICIT INTO ASIAN GAMES GOLD. 🎥🔥🇮🇳
DON’T BLINK. THIS COMEBACK HAPPENED IN REAL TIME. 🤼♂️
THE SCORE SAID 9-2.
THE CLOCK SAID “TOO LATE.”
SUJEET KALKAL SAID “WATCH ME.” 🇮🇳🔥🤼♂️
9-2 → 10-9. GOLD. 🥇
Eight points.
Two minutes.
One unbelievable comeback.
Tajikistan’s Abdulmajid Kudiev was seven points ahead in the Asian Games 65kg FINAL.
Sujeet Kalkal had almost no room left for error.
So he stopped defending the deficit…
and started hunting.
Attack after attack.
Point after point.
Until the scoreboard flipped:
9-9.
Then came the GOLDEN point.
10-9. SUJEET KALKAL. 🇮🇳🥇
And remember—
just hours earlier, Sujeet had eliminated reigning Olympic champion Kotaro Kiyooka in a 3-3 criteria thriller.
Olympic champion in the semifinal.
Seven-point comeback in the final.
This wasn't just a GOLD medal.
This was a refusal to lose.
9-2 से 10-9 — नागोया में सुजीत ने हार की कहानी को गोल्ड की कहानी बना दिया। 🇮🇳🔥

Had this man not found the courage to fight back after being repeatedly attacked with an axe capable of cutting through metal—while bleeding profusely—and had the presence mind to trigger the hijack/emergency code, initiate the emergency response and open the cockpit door to allow passengers to assist him, the aircraft’s subsequent dive could have had catastrophic consequences.
Had that aircraft not been recovered, the geopolitical consequences for the Middle East could have been profound and potentially irreversible.
Sometimes history turns on the courage, resilience and presence of mind of one person.
Yes. One Indian man.
Does anyone else see shades of Faf du Plessis in Georgia Voll’s batting? 👀
The composure at the crease, elegant strokeplay, and clean ball striking are very Faf-esque. What do you think? 🏏@faf1307
