India won seven medals on day eight and assured themselves of two more as the contingent picked up some historic medals.
Fauaad Mirza became the first Indian individual to pick up an equestrian medal at the Asiad since 1982 and team India picked up an equestrian silver as well.
Hima Das won a 400 metre silver to add to her world junior title, while male counterpart Muhammed Anas added a silver in the men’s quarter-mile as well. Dutee Chand, India’s fastest over 100 metres, added a silver of her own as Govindan Lakshmanan, who looked like he had won a bronze in the 10,000 metres, was disqualified.
India picked up two bronze medals in bridge through the men’s and mixed teams. P V Sindhu and Saina Nehwal assured themselves of at least a bronze medal by qualifying for the semi-finals in women’s singles badminton.
