WITH just over a month left for the Asian Games to begin, the sports ministry and the Sports Authority of India are yet to clear names of players for the quadrennial event slated from September 23 to October 9.

Final list of players for Asiad must be released soon

Though the ministry has made a concession for football and sanctioned 15 teams including basketball and volleyball, the players' lists are yet to be finalised.

Though some players and coaches are certain they will make it to the team, there are some who are yet not sure. This has its own drawback. The names of all players have been finalised by July 15 (the last date to send the entry by name to the organising committee) except wrestling, which was sent on July 23 (as an exception case). It has been over three weeks but the ministry and the SAI have not cleared the names. Or at least the list is still not released. It is already late.
