Commonwealth Games 2018: 5 reasons why you should look forward to CWG more than IPL 

#4 India's future prospects on display

2015 Commonwealth Youth Games - Day 1

Few feelings are as satisfying in sports than spotting a talent early on in their career and then seeing them progress to become one of the bests in the world. The 2018 Commonwealth Games are another chance for India to showcase some of their best young talents.

Good things are expected of Mehuli Ghosh, a 17-year-old shooter, who finished with 11 medals at the 2017 National Championships as well as Manu Bhaker, yet another young shooting prospect. Another such talent is high-jumper Tejaswin Shankar. At the age of 19, he already holds the national record and has the joint best performance in high jump by a Commonwealth athlete this year.

20-year-old Neeraj Chopra is India's hope for Javelin Throw. The Haryana born athlete won gold at 2016 World U20 Championships and 2017 Asian Athletic Championships. He also holds a world junior record in the same sport. In boxing as well, there are Hussamuddin Mohammed and Lovlina Borgohain.

With the sports ministry also on the drive to promote and develop young talent under their Khelo India programme, India is surely on their way to produce some future stars.
