As defending champions in men’s table tennis and the badminton mixed team events, India will look to reach the finals in both events as action continues thick and fast at the 2022 Birmingham Commonwealth Games on Monday.
K Srikanth, PV Sindhu & Co have played like the favourites so far but their stiffest test yet will come from a Loh Kean Yew-led Singapore with a place in the final at stake.
Sharath Kamal, G Sathiyan & Co will have to overcome Aruna Quadri-led Nigeria to reach the men’s table tennis team event final.
With weightlifting providing plenty of joy so far, two more events are lined up on Monday.
The men’s hockey team will also return to action after a thumping 11-0 win against Ghana.
Boxing has seen the male athletes struggle so far but Amit Panghal will look to make a statement that he is back to his best, as he begins a crucial campaign in his career.
Lawn Bowls will also witness the Indian women’s fours team in semifinal action.
