    Absolutely loved this interview ! Ashwini comes across as a very articulate, grounded and intelligent individual. And completely stunning too. Thank you for bringing her on. Wishing her luck and the very best for the Olympics .
    I loved the interviewer too. Such well thought out questions and meaningful engagement. Couldn’t help but subscribe to watch other interviews now & hopefully we will get to see more interviews from badminton greats!

    Chinese women's doubles shuttlers had to kill each other to get to olympics. They have 3 pairs in top 8 - the norm is to have only max 2 pairs from each country. Here we are sending a 34 year old and taking pride in it. No doubt, Ashwini was a gem, but she's way past her prime and WD and XD in India has really long way to go to even dream of a medal at a major event.

      Yes, Whatever u pointed out here is true. Instead of looking for new faces, we are relying on old legs, she can as part of contingent but not by cost of younger player. I dont think, we do have right streamline process to reach that level, we keep on seeing same players again and again except cricket. If this continue, she will play until get married.

    These are the star athletes who can give lot of inspiration to younger girls and generation. But unfortunately cricketers take 99.9% of popularity , advertising and money pie .
    Reason with 1.4 billion people India comes back with single digit Olympic medals below small countries.

    I don't understand why she is being sent to represent India when she is well past her best. Not trying to undermine her achievements at all, but there is no way she is going to win a medal at Paris. She should rather coach some promising player and win a gold for India through him or her. The BAI is clearly not up to the mark selecting the teams. If they claim that there were no other options, that's an even bigger problem.

      Because she still earned her spot by ranking.
