HANGZHOU: Even before India entered its last day of competition at the 19th Asian Games on October 7, confirmations for podium-finishes had ensured that the 100-medal mark would be accomplished. And it didn't take long to come. In the early hours of Saturday in India, the women's kabaddi team's win over Chinese Taipei in the final became the breaking news.
It was the country's first three-figure mark on the medals tally in the 72-year history of the Games.
