"Excuse Is Where Our Country Will Win Gold...": Sunil Gavaskar On Prakash Padukone Olympics Row

The Indian badminton contingent did not win a single medal at the Paris Olympics 2024 with Lakshya Sen coming close but failing to win his men's singles bronze medal match against Lee Zii Jia. Badminton legend Prakash Padukone, who was the coach and mentor of the badminton team at the Paris Olympics, was extremely disappointed with the showing and after Lakshya's loss, he said that it was "high time the players step up and win as expected". The comments resulted in quite a bit of criticism for Padukone with Ashwini Ponnappa coming up with a fiery reply. However, former Indian cricket team batter Sunil Gavaskar has come to Padukone's defence. In his column for Sportstar, Gavaskar said that "making excuses" has become a habit of the country and that resulted in the criticism of a legend like Padukone.

Badminton was one sport where India has fared well in the last three editions.

But Rohit finally got his date with destiny when India beat South Africa by seven runs to win the T20 World Cup at Kensington Oval last month.
