On paper, that appears to be a step backwards from the 61 medals won in Birmingham four years ago. Of India’s 122 athletes, 38 won medals, with Gulveer Singh claiming two, giving the country a slightly better conversion rate than Birmingham. Tejaswin Shankar battled injury to win India’s first-ever CWG medal in the decathlon. The six medals won in para athletics provided another encouraging reminder that India's talent pool continues to deepen across disciplines. The 2010 Delhi Games remain India’s finest Commonwealth performance, with 101 medals, including 38 gold, and a second-place finish.
