A hectic Wednesday saw Saurav Ghosal and Tejaswin Shankar create history in Birmingham for Indian squash and athletics, winning their respective events’ first ever medals in Commonwealth Games history.
As action moves to Thursday, we will see the rest of the boxing contingent that is still in the fray fight in quarterfinal bouts, where a win would ensure podium finish. Three boxers have so far assured medals.
The men’s hockey team will also look to win their final group match and seal the top spot in their Pool to reach semifinals.
Badminton and table tennis will move from team to individual events with the likes of PV Sindhu and Achanta Sharath Kamal back in action.
Para powerlifting and Para table tennis action is in store too.
And late in the night, all eyes will be on M Sreeshankar who would be among the favourites to win a medal in men’s long jump final.
