Five medals, a Pakistan route in hockey, a historic medal confirmation in women’s doubles table tennis and a thrilling India win against Pakistan? What’s not to love? That’s how the day went for the Indian contingent in the 19th Asian Games in Hangzhou as the medal tally reached 38. Shooting as always began the medal procession for the day, followed by Gold medals in mixed doubles in tennis in the men’s squash team event and then a double podium finish in 10,000-metre race with a Silver and Bronze being added.
This was just the start of medals in Track and Field as there are as many as seven medal events scheduled across various disciplines including the 3000m steeplechase featuring Avinash Sable. The Badminton team which won against Korea will be chasing a historic gold in the men’s event against China. Nikhat Zareen plays her semi-final while the women’s hockey team plays South Korea in the Pool A match.
