Although injured at present, Parupalli Kashyap has done a lot for Indian badminton ever since making his debut in 2006. The 29-year-old became the first Indian Men’s Singles shuttler to enter the quarterfinals at an Olympics, back in 2012, where he lost to Lee Chong Wei.

Two years later, Kashyap changed the colour of his medal at the 2014 Commonwealth Games, winning the gold after having won the bronze at the 2010 edition at home.

Much was expected from him at the Rio Olympics, but the shuttler, unfortunately, got injured just ahead of the Games and is now looking to make a comeback into the sport in September.
