Asian Games 2023, Day 10 schedule: Indian start campaign in men’s cricket, athletics and boxing in focus

The Indian contingent have had a great weekend at the Asian Games, taking the medal tally to 60. India are currently placed at the fourth rank in the medal tally after winning 7 medals on Monday, October 2.

On Monday, it will be business as usual for India in the Asian Games, with athletes either competing in medal rounds or playing in rounds that will assure them a medal.

Day 9 Highlights

India did not win a Gold medal on Monday but there were some impressive showing on the track and field with Ancy Sojan Edippally outclassing favourites in the women’s long jump final and Parul Chaudhary living up to the reputation in women’s 3000m steeplechase. It was a dominating show from India in the steeplechase event as Priti won bronze in the women’s 3000m event following up from Avinash Sable’s Gold in the men’s event on Sunday.

Yarraji’s Tribute for late friend

Meanwhile, the India men’s hockey team hammered Bangladesh 12-0 to assure themselves a spot in the semi-finals while their arch-rivals and 8-time Gold medalists Pakistan missed out on a spot in the last four for the first time in Asian Games history.

Day 10 Outlook

The Indian cricket team will be the prime focus on Day 10 of the Asian Games where they take on Nepal. Nepal are coming into the game after a record-shattering win against Mongolia, but are not expected to pose a real danger to the Ruturaj Gaikwad team.

Preeti, Lovlina, Narender and Sachin have a chance to either win or assure medals on Day 10 and the boxing contingent would be raring to go after Nikhat Zareen’s bronze finish.
