Asian Games 2023: Tarundeep Rai optimistic about Indian men’s recurve team’s success
The HinduIndia’s only Asian Games individual medallist in recurve section, Tarundeep Rai, feels at least one from the men’s archery team could win a medal in the Hangzhou edition and end a 13-year-long drought in the continental showpiece. It slowly starts affecting your form, unless you are used to it.” Set for his third successive Asian Games, two-time Olympian Das has a wealth of experience, while Rai’s Army “junior” Dhiraj is in the midst of a breakout season. To win four World Cup medals in his first full World Cup season is not easy,” said Rai, who has seen Dhiraj’s rise since he joined the Army Sports Institute, Pune five years back. “The improvement he has shown in three-four years’ is huge and makes him a potential medallist not only at Asian Games but at the Olympics too,” he said.
