We are into the last week of 2016 Olympic now, why India has not win any medal yet?

Many tiny nation with population lest than 1 million won medals, but giant India with over 1,200 millions people still doing very very bad in world sport. However, i am very sure that India will win something in cricket at the end.

    If India poured hundreds of millions of dollars into other sports other than cricket they might have some decent olympic teams.

    A billion people even saying if 3/4 live in poverty still leaves a huge educated and well off population the size of the USA or Russia.

    Indians have high IQ's but low physical ability; similar to Asians. Except, Asians at least have more muscle mass and lower fat, which allows them to do well in certain sports. Indians, typically, are slow-twitch muscle fibers, not strong; not overly fast, not big; and don't have a low fat % either. They just aren't athletic.

    They are very classy, esteemed and intelligent though IMO.

    Although I think they need to be a little less cheap on home improvement jobs they sign contracts for- they're pretty darn cheap sometimes! Lol
