Coach Manoj Rana was also hopeful of good show from his wards — Aruna Budda Reddy and Ashish. “They have improved a lot after training in Belgium. I have prepared them in such a manner that they will be able to perform even without a coach,” said Rana from Ajmer Sharif holy shrine, where he went to pray for his wards, on Friday.

“We will get at least one medal in vault events this time, either by the men’s or women’s teams. Deepa Karmakar, Aruna or Ashish, anyone can bag a medal.”

The coach said Ashish should  first aim to qualify for the final and then think of the next step.

“Asiad is tough because countries which dominate at the world level are all present here. But Ashish is good enough to win a medal. He could won a medal at the CWG as well, but lost due to circumstances,” the coach said.

“The nature of our sport is such that having a coach by your side during competition is a must.”
