Year-ender 2022: Top moments in Indian sports

First-ever Thomas Cup triumph; Virat Kohli's epic at the MCG are both part of our top sporting moments for India in 2022. Check out the full list.

From India's first-ever Thomas Cup triumph to Virat Kohli's unbelievable knock against Pakistan at the MCG, Editorji lists down the top sporting moments in the year gone by.

2022 produced some of the best moments in Indian sporting history; records were made that will be remembered for years to come and here's a reminder of those moments that'll forever be etched in Indian&nbsp;
Thomas Cup Triumph A victory like none other! One that many consider equivalent to the Cricket World Cup triumphs. The Indian men's badminton team made history in May when they stunned 14-time Champions Indonesia to win the Thomas Cup. It was India's first finals appearance in the tournament's 73-year history, only the 13th time they had qualified in 32 editions and the men made sure India became only the 6th country after China, Malaysia, Indonesia, Japan, and Denmark to lift the coveted crown.
Kohli Special at MCG India vs Pakistan at the mighty MCG, it doesn't get bigger than that. Chasing 160 for victory in their opening T20 World Cup encounter, the Men in Blue were down and out at 31/4. But cometh the hour, cometh the man. When all hope was lost, India's King Kohli once again single-handedly lifted 1.2 billion Indians out of despair with a stunning 82*. His knock, the best of his star-studded career, saw his side win on the final ball with 90,000 at the 'G' witnessing a true spectacle.
Golden Man with Golden Arm How can Neeraj Chopra not be on this list? After all, he had another unbelievable year, collecting new records on the global stage. While he couldn't defend his Commonwealth Games crown due to injury, the Olympic Champion became only the second Indian and the first Indian male to win a medal at the World Athletics Championships. To add to his silver in Oregon, Neeraj also became the first Indian to win the Diamond League title in September, capping off another year where India's golden man with the golden arm shone through.
The Historic Firsts at CWG&nbsp; While there were some incredible performances from the wrestlers, weightlifters, and boxers, there were a few achievements at the Commonwealth Games that deserve a special spotlight. 2-time Olympic medalist PV Sindhu, adding to the plethora of her medals, finally added that elusive CWG Gold to her cabinet. Eldhose Paul &amp; Abdulla Aboobacker made history by taking home Gold &amp; Silver respectively in the men's triple jump event. The women's cricket team too won the silver in the very first full-fledged edition of the sport at the Commonwealth Games. But it was the Women's Lawn Bowls team that exceeded all expectations, with the quartet of Lovely Choubey, Pinky, Rupa Rani Tirkey, and Nayanmoni Saikia clinching an unexpected Gold, India's first-ever medal in the sport. &nbsp;
BCCI's Equal Pay Policy In a landmark move, the BCCI announced pay parity for its women cricketers, with secretary Jay Shah announcing that all women cricketers contracted with the board will be paid the same match fee as their male counterparts across the three formats. The decision earned praise from all quarters, with cricketers, sportspersons, and celebrities from all walks of life and other countries hailing the move from the Indian cricket board.

Mirabai Chanu made India proud on Saturday by winning the country's first gold media of the 2022 Commonweath Games that are being held in Birmingham. 
On Sunday, the champion weightlifter shared a video on her Twitter account of her family celebrating her win with a traditional Manipur dance. 
Chanu's mother and relative can been seen dancing in the video with the Indian tricolour in their hand. 
On Saturday, the down to earth champion continued to win hearts even after her performance as she stayed back at theweightlifting arena and met her supporters. 
One of images on social media even shows her doing a split with a little  girl. 
Mirabai Chanu bossed the 49kg field as expected to defend her Commonwealth Games title and give India the first gold medal of the Birmingham edition here on Saturday.
The Olympic silver medallist aggregated 201kg (88kg + 113kg ) to stamp her authority in the competition and achieve a Commonwealth Games record in the process.
The silver went to Mauritius' Marie Hanitra Roilya Ranaivosoa (172kg) and bronze to Canada's Hannah Kaminski (171 kg).
In a remarkable performance, Chanu smashed the Commonwealth and CWG record in snatch. She obliterated the Games record in clean and jerk as well as total lift.
An overwhelming favourite in her weight category, the 27-year-old Chanu set a rather low starting weight of 80kg in snatch and 105kg in clean and jerk before changing her first attempt to 84kg.
Going into the competition, she had a personal best of 88kg and 119kg, a world record in clean and jerk, totalling 207kg.

Badminton: PV Sindhu back among Top 5 in World Rankings

Despite her battle with an ankle injury that kept her out of the World Championships, India's double-Olympic medallist PV Sindhu is back among the Top 5 Women's Singles players in the world.

16 years after he first won the Commonwealth Games Gold in men’s singles, India’s Achanta Sharath Kamal has once again captured the crown.
At 40 years of age, Sharath Kamal is defying all odds with the table tennis racquet in his hand.
He was not the favourite in Birmingham and yet, he managed to bring home the Gold with his superb show. He defeated the much-higher ranked, World No. 20 Liam Pitchford of England to capture Gold.
It was a cakewalk for Achanta Sharath Kamal who won 4 consecutive games after losing a close first 11-13. All through the match, Sharath Kamal exuded confidence and it was like he knew from the start that it was going to be his day.

Australian CWG Gold Medalist Rachael Haynes announces retirement from International Cricket

Australian batter Rachael Haynes has decided to retire from International cricket after the Women's Big Bash League where she will play for the Sydney Thunder. The 35-year-old's last appearance for the Australian team was in the 2022 Commonwealth Games Gold medal match against India.

Here's a look at her illustrious career

2022 Commonwealth Games Gold medalist Rachael Haynes announced her retirement from International cricket on Thursday. Haynes will be ending her cricketing career after the Women's Big Bash League where she will be representing Sydney Thunder.

Australian batter and Vice Captain Rachael Haynes has announced her retirement from International Cricket on Thursday.
Haynes will be ending her professional career after the Women's Big Bash League where she will be playing for the Sydney Thunder.
The 35-year-old's last game for the national team was in the 2022 Commonwealth Games Gold medal match against India in Birmingham where the former came to bat at number six and scored 18 runs not out off 10 deliveries. The team won the match by nine runs.
So, its fair to say that she ended her role with the Australian team on a high note.
Haynes has had an illustrious career to look back at. Two ODI World Cups along with three T20 World Cups speak for themselves.
&ldquo;Playing at this level isn&rsquo;t possible without the support of many people. From clubs, states, coaches, family and friends, I&rsquo;m so grateful to those who helped me along the way." Haynes said in her statement

Murali Sreeshankar, who made the nation proud with a historic silver at the recently concluded Commonwealth Games 2022, had a disappointing Diamond League debut in Monaco on August 10.
The long jumper ran behind the leader by quite some margin and ended at the 6th spot and failed to win a medal. Sreeshankar, who has the season best of 8.36m in the nationals, finished with a 7.94m leap, which was much below his best standards.
Cuba's Masso Maykel won gold with a mammoth effort of 8.35m, slightly below Sreeshankar’s best effort this season. At CWG 2022, Sreeshankar became the first Indian to win silver in men's long jump at the Games.
