Is the Indian campaign ready for Rio?

Whoa whoa whoa! A great League! Now the question is just for a medal........
Will the Indians create history by winning some medals there?
That's  the question.....
Srikanth Kidambi (a player whom India trusts for a medal)- After beating Lee Chong Wei in the Premier Badminton League and Lin Dan to win the China Open 2014, the 22 year has lots of hopes to shine at Rio. The Badminton Ace whose birth took place in Guntur, Andhra is proving himself to be a dangerous person after showing a talented performance.
Srikanth failed to qualify for the knockouts in the Dubai Super Series Masters Final which is played in the last month  of every year after losing every match in the group stage. The world number nine's tough opponents would be Lin Dan, Lee Chong Wei, Viktor Axelsen, Chen Long,Kento Momota, and some rising stars, He would really have to practice and play well to make it. Having won the Syed Modi Grand Prix Gold this week, Srikanth is really a player whom India trusts and believes in recent years.






Saina Nehwal (2012 Olympics Bronze Medalist)- The Golden girl of the country whom everybody trusts to win a medal as the competition is easier than the last time. Last time there were Li Xuerui, Wang Yihan and many other tough competitors whom Saina played and made her way to the Bronze.This time the supreme power will be Carolina Marin, from Spain who really knows Saina's strategy to beat her. The Commonwealth Games Gold Medalist is the biggest hope from India in the field of Badminton. She in order to win a better medal should work very hard and should believe in herself.
The fight-giving opponents of Saina are- Marin, Ratchanok Intanon, Wang Yihan, Li Xuerui and some underdogs,I should say. She has a strong record over Marin but if Xuerui plays in form, it really can be disastrous for the 25 year old.

P.V. Sindhu (2 time World Championships Bronze Medalist)- The shining star on which the sun hasn't shone yet, but she is the one who is really a great future for the nation who can prove dangerous. But,some of the players underestimate the shuttler which can be dangerous at their own cost. She also shouldn't lose hope and should be strong in contention for doing it and I have no doubt about her success. Her toughest opponent is Ratchanok Intanon from Thailand whom she gives a tough fight but many times loses. A lot of celebrations are expected from the 20 year old in the upcoming years as she is a bit inexperienced, but a confidence-boosting performance is needed from Sindhu. 
Recently she has won the Malaysian Masters Grand Prix Gold which can really boost her confidence,but she had a shocking defeat in the Syed Modi Grand Prix Gold in Lucknow the last week.
