The second day of the Asian Games 2023 brought some stunning results for India, including the country's first two gold medals from Hangzhou. India also picked up four bronze medals across rowing and shooting to complete a successful day at the games.
Indian sporting fans had a lot to look forward to on Monday, with athletes sporting the orange, white, and green tri-color in action across 14 different events.
Of these 14 events, medals were up for grabs in shooting, rowing, cricket, and swimming. While Indian swimmers missed out on the chance to finish on the podium, others certainly made up for that disappointment.
Shooters Aishwary Pratap Singh Tomar, Divyansh Panwar, and Rudrankkash Patil gave India a strong start to the day, claiming the revered gold medal in the men's 10m air rifle team event.
Aishwary later followed that up with a bronze in the men's 10m air rifle individual event. Also staking claim to a spot on the podium in shooting was the Indian men's 25m rapid-fire pistol team. The trio of Vijaveer Sidhu, Anish, and Adarsh Singh clinched bronze in the event.
India's second gold of the day at the Asian Games was courtesy of the women's cricket team. Playing against Sri Lanka, Harmanpreet Kaur and company put up a scintillating display to win the country's first cricketing gold at the Asiad.
Adding to yesterday's rowing medal tally, athletes Jaswinder Singh, Bheem Singh, Punit Kumar, and Ashish won bronze in the men's four event. Meanwhile, the team of Satnam Singh, Parminder Singh, Jakar Khan, and Sukhmeet Singh won bronze in the men's quadruple sculls race.
