With 15 medals — five gold, five silver and five bronze — India is currently at the sixth spot at the Commonwealth Games 2022.
Three Indian pugilists, including Nikhat Zareen, advanced to the semifinals in their respective events after thrilling victories in the Commonwealth Games here on Wednesday. With their wins, Zareen (50kg), Nitu Ganghas (48kg) and Mohammed Hussamudin (57kg) assured India of three boxing medals.
Breaking a long-standing jinx, Saurav Ghosal claimed India’s first ever singles medal in squash — a bronze — at the Commonwealth Games. World No.15 Ghosal dominated the contest against England’s James Willstrop from beginning to end, winning 11-6 11-1 11-4 in the bronze play-off.
