At least a couple of medals could be confirmed as the Asian Games enter day 6 on September 25. Both shooting and rowing have disappointed so far, as India aims to get past their 2023 Asian Games tally of 106 medals - 28 gold, 38 silver and 40 bronze.
So far, only the Indian Women's Cricket Team has clinched a gold medal and a number of medal prospects have not lived up to expectations.
