The women's 4x400 metres relay team brought home the last gold in Asian Games, 2010 for India from the Guangdong Olympic Stadium in Guangzhou, China on 26/Nov/2010
There could have been doubts about India's capacity to win its third straight gold medal in the women's 4x400m relay when Manjeet Kaur and Mandeep Kaur failed to get an individual medal in the 400 metres.
Mandeep said on Friday, after she confidently took the team home despite a spirited challenge from 400m champion Olga Tereshkova, running the anchor for Kazakhstan, that she had suffered a chest infection after the Commonwealth Games and had missed training. Manjeet also was indisposed, according to coaches.
The quartet of Manjeet, Sini Jose, A.C. Ashwini and Mandeep clocked 3:29.02, not one of the better timings by Indian teams in recent years but good enough for the gold.
Kazakhstan (3:30.03) and China (3:30.89) took the Silver and Bronze medals.
Ashwini, whose second gold it was in these Games, said the Commonwealth Games final was a little tougher than this one though, with the home crowd backing, it was an enjoyable experience in Delhi.
The Kazakhs could have given a harder time here had not Tereshkova run almost the entire final 200 metres on the outside, hoping to go wide of Mandeep in order to overtake her rival.
Mandeep had to really struggle in the end, but she managed to put in her best on the straight.
