Deepika Kumari will look to beat Ksenia Perova in the 1/16 elimination and get a step closer to the medal rounds.

Meanwhile, the Indian athletics contingent will look to start their campaign at the Tokyo Olympics on a positive note. Indian shuttler PV Sindhu is another medal prospect for India. But she will first have to defeat Japanese player Akane Yamaguchi to reach the semis.

Simranjit Kaur could bag a medal for India, while Lovlina Borgohain is also in the reckoning to do so.

Udayan Mane did not have the greatest of starts in Round 1 of the men's individual golf event, while Anirban Lahiri started his campaign on a positive note. Both players will look to improve their positions in Round 2 of the event at the Tokyo Olympics 2020.

Indian sailors Nethra Kumanan and Vishnu Saravanan are likely to progress to the next stage of their respective events. Manu Bhaker is another key player who could bring home a medal. Meanwhile, Rahi Sarnobat was off to a poor start in her event and faces a tough task to bag an Olympic medal.
