   <ChartPrimaryXAxis EdgeLabelPlacement="EdgeLabelPlacement.Shift" ValueType="Syncfusion.Blazor.Charts.ValueType.Category" />
   <ChartSeriesCollection>
       <ChartSeries PointColorMapping="Color" LegendShape="Syncfusion.Blazor.Charts.LegendShape.Rectangle" DataSource="@MedalDetails" XName="X" YName="YValue" Type="Syncfusion.Blazor.Charts.ChartSeriesType.Bar">
           <ChartMarker>
               <ChartDataLabel Fill="LightGray" Visible="true">
                   <ChartDataLabelFont Color="red" />
                   <ChartDataLabelMargin Left="20" />
               </ChartDataLabel>
           </ChartMarker>
       </ChartSeries>
   </ChartSeriesCollection>

@code {    
   public class ChartData
   {
       public string X { get; set; }
       public double YValue { get; set; }
   }

   public List<ChartData> MedalDetails = new List<ChartData>
   {
       new ChartData { X= "USA", YValue= 46 },
       new ChartData { X= "GBR", YValue= 27 },
       new ChartData { X= "CHN", YValue= 26 },
