Bommadevara’s archers are lined up to square off against China in the semi‑finals of the recurve event, a showdown that could swing the gold medal dial.
The women’s hockey team’s final against China, scheduled for 3:30 pm, carries the weight of an Olympic qualification; a victory would secure a spot in the 2028 Games.
In boxing, three gold‑medal bouts will play out: Lovlina Borgohain versus Bao Ziyi in the 75 kg final, Parveen against Chen Nien‑chin in the 65 kg final, and Ankush facing Kim Minseong for the 80 kg crown.
Beyond the marquee sports, athletes will battle it out in wrestling, canoe slalom, sepaktakraw, and more, with India’s men and women competing in multiple medal events from morning to evening.
As the day unfolds, the schedule keeps the energy high: early‑morning sepaktakraw, mid‑day archery, afternoon boxing, and the climactic hockey final, all under the bright lights of Aichi‑Nagoya.
The focus now shifts to the final matchups; the next big test for India will be the women’s hockey showdown against China, a game that could decide the team’s Olympic fate.
