Yellow vs Red in badminton wouldn’t need too much of an explanation for Indian fans. Even 10 years on, the Rio Olympics final between PV Sindhu and Carolina Marin is imprinted on the brain. As would the podium snapshot of her silver in India’s iconic blue – a collective memory for a nation that began getting used to yet another elite performing sport.

The orange outlines to Rio’s green courts were welcomed like a carnival would be.
