PV Sindhu (Badminton)
With defending champion Saina Nehwal skipping the 20th Commonwealth Games, India will be pinning their hopes on P.V. Sindhu, Parupalli Kashyap and the pair of Jwala Gutta and Ashwini Ponnappa to repeat their success in badminton that they achieved four years ago at home. The 19-yearold Sindhu, the only Indian to win a women's singles medal at the World Championships, is seeded second and could have been in the lower-half of the draw to ensure an all-India final had Saina played. The tall shuttler struck gold in Macau open Malaysia Open last year.
India won four medals at the 2010 Delhi Commonwealth Games.
