Gutta Jwala - Gutta Jwala Hot Photos | Gutta Jwala Rare Photos | Gutta Jwala Unseen photos | Gutta Jwala Biodata
New Delhi: In 2002 Manchester, she was a novice taking her first steps in badminton but eight years down the line, Jwala Gutta is one of the best medal prospects for India at the Commonwealth Games and the 27-year-old says she will not let her country down.
The seven-time national doubles Champion Jwala will pair up with V Diju and Ashwini Ponnappa to spearhead the Indian challenge in mixed and women's doubles events and she said she is eyeing two gold medals at the October 3-14 Delhi event here.
"During the Manchester Commonwealth Games, I was very young and new. I still remember those days, it was a different experience for me. Gopi was playing in those days. But now I have grown as a player a lot would be expected of me and Diju. I am ready for it," Jwala said.
"I am looking to win two gold medals, nothing less than that. Me and Diju had good exposure this year, thanks to the government's support. We have grown as players in the last couple of years and foreign teams are now scared to face us.
"We had good training sessions in the last month, where we have worked on the mistakes committed during the world championship. I am looking forward to performing at home," she said.
Asked about the level of competition, Jwala said, "Frankly speaking, it might not look so but there is tough competition in doubles. Malaysia, Indonesia, Singapore and England have good teams. But I know they are beatable.

Mongoose Cricket Bat - Some Real Facts With Photos
Mongoose Cricket Bat
Haven't heard of this new kind of cricket bat until today. This cricket bat has a longer handle. Specifically "The Mongoose’s blade is 33% shorter and its handle 43% longer than a conventional bat"
Stuart Law and the Mongoose bat.
Mongoose Bat fact sheet:
1. The Mongoose bat has been designed specifically for Twenty20
2. The Mongoose is the most radical change to cricket bat design since 1771
3. The MCC Laws sub-committee has confirmed that the Mongoose bats are legal and allowed to be used in all levels of cricket. They conform to the new version of Law 6 and Appendix E, which came into force on 1st October 2008
4. The Mongoose has been scientifically proven by Imperial College to offer batsmen 20% more power and 15% more bat speed than a conventional bat
5. The Mongoose allows you to hit harder & further without changing the way you play
6. The Mongoose’s blade is 33% shorter and its handle 43% longer than a conventional bat
7. The splice, usually located in the blade of the bat, is incorporated in the handle, which ensures there is no dead spot in the hitting area of the bat
8. The Mongoose also reconfigures the shoulders of the bat by dropping them down nine inches. The weight taken from the shoulders – about 20 per cent of the blade weight – is redistributed to the back of the new, shorter blade
9. The Mongoose is the invention of Marcus Codrington Fernandez, former Global Creative Director for one of the biggest advertising networks in the world
10. The Mongoose will make its first class debut in the Twenty20 Cup (England's domestic competition)
11. The players using the Mongoose bat in first class cricket will include:
Stuart Law – Derbyshire and Australia
Ebony Rainford-Brent – Surrey and England
Laura Marsh – Sussex and England
