We have talked a lot about cricket and not many want to encourage discussions regarding cricket anymore. 

Then came the doping scandal of athletes.

Now we have a good news..

Indian swimmers Virdhawal Khade and Sandeep Sejwal created quite a splash at the seventh Singapore Open Championships, sharing four gold, a silver and three bronze medals among themselves.
While Khade bagged two gold and three bronze medals, Sandeep brought home two gold and a silver.
Khade was in top form at the meet as he won the gold in the 50m and 100m Freestyle events with times of 23.21 and 51.08 seconds respectively.
Khade also added three bronze medals to his tally while competing in the 200m Freestyle event (1:52.54), 100m Butterfly Event (55.37) and as a member of the 400m Freestyle Relay team.
Sandeep was as impressive in his performance securing podium finishes in all the events he participated in.
He won the gold in his favorite event, the 50m breaststroke, with a time of 29.10 seconds and the 100m breaststroke event, where he clocked a time of 1:03.72.
The 22-year-old Sandeep ended his winning streak at Singapore with a silver in the 200m Breaststroke event with a time of 2:17.50

Have they undergone "doping tests" before collecting these medals? There is no point we criticise them after their medals are stripped off! Jokes apart, this is a breather for all the sports-loving persons in this country, truly, Kavita.  Thanks for posting this wonderful News!
