India pistol coach Ronak said the team’s performance had not matched expectations or its perceived ability, The Hindu reported. “There is no point in pointing fingers at any individual,” Ronak said, according to the report. He added that the outcome “was not what we expected” and said it “should not have happened.” The coach’s comments placed the emphasis on the team’s overall performance rather than on assigning responsibility to a particular athlete or staff member.
He also warned against complacency, saying sport has a way of humbling people who take it for granted. The supplied material does not name the event in which the performance occurred, provide scores or medal results, or identify the athletes involved. It therefore offers no further detail on the circumstances of the disappointment.
Ronak’s remarks, as reported, amount to a call for reflection after a result that he considered below the team’s expected standard.
