The women’s fours team won a historic gold for India in lawn bowls while the men’s table tennis team defended their title against Singapore on Tuesday as the medal tally increased by four. And now, on Wednesday, the contingent would look to add a few more to the count.
After their historic gold, the team of Rupa Rani Tirkey, Pinki, Nayanmoni Saikia and Lovely Choubey will all be in action in the women’s triples and pairs events on Wednesday.
In T20 cricket. Harmanpreet Kaur and Co will take on Barbados in a match which will decide who joins Australia, England and New Zealand in the cricket semifinals.
After losing to England in their Pool A match on Tuesday, the Indian women’s hockey team will play Canada in a match which will virtually decide who reaches the semifinal (Wales still in contention too so not quite straightforward as a virtual quarterfinal).
The men will also play Canada in their pool a match knowing a win will take them closer to the semis. But they will want to vastly improve their performance from the 4-4 draw against England.
There are also a host of Indian boxers in quarterfinal action including Tokyo Olympics medalist Lovlina Borgohain and world champion Nikhat Zareen. A win away from ensuring medal but they will have their sights on top of the podium.
In squash, Sourav Ghoshal will be playing for bronze while the mixed doubles pair of Joshana Chinappa and Harinder Pal Singh Sandhu will begin their campaign.
Tejaswin Shankar and Manpreet Kaur will be in action in the men’s high jump final and women’s shot put final respectively. Could the former cap off a rollercoaster build-up with a medal?
