Team India athletes continued their good run at the ongoing Commonwealth Games 2022 in Birmingham by adding four more medals on Wednesday. While India's rich haul of medals continued in weightlifting, Tejaswin Shankar and Saurav Ghosal won historic bronze each in high jump and squash respectively. Tulika Maan's silver was country's third medal in judo at CWG 2022. In boxing, Mohammed Husamuddin, Nitu Ghanghas and World Champion Nikhat Zareen assured themselves of medals each. It was a disappointing day for Olympic medallist Lovlina Borgohain and boxer Ashish Kumar who bowed out in the quarter-final stage.
Day 7 of the Birmingham Games 2022 will see India looking to add more medals to their tally. The Indian duo of Muhammed Anees Yahiya and Murali Sreeshankar, who will compete in the Men's Long Jump final event, will be top medal hopefuls on Day 7 . After thrashing Canada 8-0 in the previous match, India will now lock horns with Wales in the men's Pool B clash of the Birmingham Games. In the boxing event, four boxers will be in action, including Amit Panghal and Rohit Tokas, in their respective weight categories.
After winning the historic bronze on Wednesday, squash player Saurav Ghoshal will be in action again, teaming up with Dipika Pallikal in the mixed doubles round of 16. Joshna Chinappa will also participate in both mixed doubles and women's doubles round of 16 matches. Besides, table tennis and para table tennis players will also be in action on Thursday.
