The doubles pairings were changed last evening after practice.While I was supposed to partner Sania and Poojashree and Ruishmi would be together, there was another issue with that since I dont have a good ranking in doubles. If Sania were to partner me, we would not get seeded and could draw a tough team in the 1st round itself. So Rico decided that Rushmi and Sania will pair up and Poojashree and I will be the other team.It is a fair decision and keeping the country's medal chances in mind should be the only goal for anyone in the team.
Apart from that,I have to say something regarding the facilities,the stadium looks fabulous.We practiced under lights yesterday.The atmosphere looked electric, but for the bugs that were flying around. The lights attracted so many bugs, that it looked like a snowfall of bugs!!!
The other show courts are equally well done and the locker rooms and physio facilties are top notch. The doctor and physios are such a cool bunch and are so helpful,its actually amazing.I will be checking into the village today.
The draw will also be made today at 11 am.After that, we will know a lot more about schedules and such.
Sanjeev and Sahana are trying to keep busy by going to a park nearby that has some deer,peacocks and bunnies. They might go to Appu Ghar(amusement park) today. Sanjeev will get more help in 2 days when his parents arrive.....

Good to hear positive review from you regarding the facilities for CWG. The media has gone beserk with critisism for most part of last month and a half! Wish you all the best for a good tournament.
