India at Asian Games, Oct 2 schedule: Athletics, table tennis finals with possible medals

After a brilliant day that saw the Indian contingent end their campaign in shooting with 22 medals, the country’s athletes will be hoping to add more on Monday. The Indian men’s team secured a historic Asian Games silver in badminton, the first for the country since 1986. There were also nine medals won in athletics, including two gold in men’s 3000m steeplechase and men’s shotput.

Monday begins with individual and team elimination rounds in recurve and compound archery while the singles and doubles events continue for the Indian squash players.

Kabaddi also begins on Monday with the men’s and women’s teams hoping to redeem themselves from their failure to win gold in Jakarta – the men won bronze and the women won silver in 2018.
