The High Performance Training Centre in Kuortane is where the top javelin throwers of the world hone their skills. Seven male throwers from India will now get to train there as foreign expert Uwe Hohn has planned an eight weeks stint from May 15. The performance of top two Indian throwers during the CWG highlights the difference between Neeraj and the rest of the field. It, therefore, raises a question whether it makes sense to send seven throwers for advanced training in Finland and not focus on the top three for the Asian Games. Anu Rani, who won bronze at the Incheon Asian Games, has not been considered for the trip.
