Asian Games 2023 India results on Day 7: India wins gold in mixed doubles Tennis and Men’s team Squash, shooters and athletes add medals to the tally

The day seventh of the Asian Games was an eventful one for the Indian contingent and their supporters back at home. Some of the top athletes of the country sealed a qualification spot in the finals of their respective events.

Shooters Sarabjot Singh and Divya Thadigol opened India’s medal account on the seventh day by bagging a silver in mixed team 10m Air Pistol. The pair lost to China’s Zhang Bowen and Jiang Ranxin narrowly in the final 14-16 to settle for the second spot. This extended India's best haul of medal tally in shooting in the Asian Games as the country now has 19 medals from the event.

Despite going down in the first set of the mixed doubles tennis final against the Chinese Taipei, the vigorous pair of Rohan Bopanna and Rutuja Bhosale won the game 2-6, 6-3, 10-4 to clinch the gold, India’s third in this category of the Asian Games history.

The Indian men’s squash team displayed a spirited comeback in the gold medal game against Pakistan to win 2-1. Saurav Ghoshal (3-0) and Abhay Singh (3-2) won their respective games against Muhammad Asim Khan and Noor Zaman to lead the comeback after Mahesh Mangaonkar suffered straight defeats to Nasir Iqbal in the first game. This is India’s second gold medal in the Asian Games men’s team event after 2014. Notably, Abhay Singh is the only replacement for Kush Kumar from that victorious squad in Incheon.

Long-distance runners Kartik Kumar and Gulveer Singh won the silver and bronze medals respectively in the men’s 10000m towards the end of the day. Kartik recorded a time of 28:15.38 to finish second while Gulveer followed his compatriot towards the finish line as he clocked 28:17.21.

The likes of Jyothi Yarraji (Women’s 100m Hurdles), Nithya Ramraj (Women’s 100m Hurdles), Muralis Sreeshankar (Men’s Long Jump), Jeswin Aldrin (Men’s Long Jump), Jinson Johnson (Men’s 1500m) and Ajay Kumar Saroj progressed to the final.

The Indian men’s hockey team continued their unbeaten run in Pool A after thrashing Pakistan 10-2, moving to the top of the points table. Indian men’s badminton team defeated the Republic of Korea to reach their first-ever gold medal match at the Asian Games.

Sutirtha Mukherjee and Ayhika Mukherjee created history as they became the first Indian women’s doubles pair in table tennis to enter the semi-final round of the continental showpiece. The World No.16 pair upset Cheng Meng and Wang Yidi with a 3-1 margin (11-5, 11-5, 5-11, 11-9).

Olympic medallist, Lovlina Borgohain defeated South Korea’s Suyeon Seong 5-0 in the Women’s 75kg quarterfinal and booked her place in the semis, becoming the fourth Indian pugilist to assure a medal this season so far. Mirabai Chanu was out of the medal contention as she suffered a thigh injury during her 49kg event, where she made six attempts. The Olympic silver medallist will return to India and will undergo tests to understand the severity of the injury.
