India’s quest for their first gold medal at the Asian Games in Aichi-Nagoya enters its second day on Monday after Sunday saw the female shooters deliver two silver medals.
The two silver medals saw India end Sunday on 10th spot in the standings. At the top of the table, China and Japan had a haul of 20 medals each, with China’s 11 golds putting them ahead of hosts Japan (six golds).
After Elavenil Valarivan played a role in both silver medals for India on Sunday, Monday could see the male rifle shooters chase gold with Parth Rakesh Mane, Himanshu Dhillon, and Rudranksh Balasaheb Patil competing in the 10m Air Rifle Men’s qualification and team final. The big contest will be in table tennis where the Indian women’s team take on Pakistan.
