Shooting Leads India’s Medal Charge at Asian Games 2026

The rifle range has been India’s happiest hunting ground so far. India opened its account at Aichi-Nagoya with Elavenil Valarivan winning silver in the women’s 10m air rifle individual event, then adding a second silver in the team event alongside Sonam Uttam Maskar and Games debutant Vidarsa Vinod.

The men followed a day later. Himanshu Dhillon, Rudrankksh Patil and Parth Mane combined for silver in the men’s 10m air rifle team event, before Dhillon and Patil doubled up with an individual silver and bronze respectively, marking the first time two Indian shooters have shared a podium in the same event at these Games.

The result clearly meant something to the young squad. Mane, who turns 19 in November, described the day as a huge learning experience in handling pressure. Dhillon, who celebrated his 21st birthday on the same day he won silver, shot 252.4 points, finishing behind China’s Sheng Lihao, who claimed gold with an Asian record score.

India’s shooters have now won five medals at Aichi-Nagoya: four silver and one bronze, a solid platform for a discipline that has historically been one of India’s most productive at the Games.

Suchika Tariyal Creates History in Mixed Martial Arts

Beyond the range, India wrote a new chapter in its Asian Games story. Suchika Tariyal claimed bronze in the women’s traditional -60kg mixed martial arts division, marking the country’s maiden medal in the sport at the Asian Games. The medal did not come without heartbreak. Tariyal was visibly emotional after her semi-final defeat and later voiced frustration over how the contest was officiated. Bronze or not, the moment secures her place in Indian sporting history.

Cricket Delivers India’s First Gold at Asian Games 2026

While the shooters and fighters stacked up the silver and bronze, India’s women cricketers delivered the gold everyone was chasing. The team beat Sri Lanka in the final to retain their title and register the country’s first gold medal of the 2026 Games. India had stormed into the final on the back of a dominant semi-final performance, with a blistering century from the top order powering the side past Bangladesh by a huge margin in the last-four clash.
