 "India women's hockey team")
Having crossed the all-time mark in Gold medals as well as overall medals tally, India would now aim for the 100 medal target as “Abki Baar 100 par” seems like a reality after the Indian contingent touched the 80 medal mark on October 4, Day 11 of the Asian Games. On October 5, 2023, which will also be the 12th day of the Hangzhou Asian Games in China, India will aim for more medals.
India’s Saurav Ghosal would look to finally get the elusive Singles Gold in Squash while Deepika Palikkal and Harinderpal Singh Sandhu will also fight for Gold in mixed doubles squash.
The Indian men’s Bridge team will be in a Gold medal clash against Hong Kong, China while the women’s hockey team will face China in the semi-final.
India compound archers, who have already secured two Gold and four medals so far, would look to win two more as they will take part in the men’s team and women’s team competitions.
Indian shuttlers would look to secure medals as well. HS Prannoy, PV Sindhu and the pairing of Satwiksairaj Rankireddy and Chirag Shetty will be in action in the quarterfinals of the women’s singles, men’s singles and men’s doubles respectively.
Here’s the detailed schedule of the Indian contingent on October 5.
