Commonwealth Games 2022 India Schedule Day 5: India eye medals rush from Lawn Bowls, Table Tennis and badminton teams

Success trickled in from the most unexpected corner for India at the Commonwealth Games 2022 on Tuesday when an unknown unit of four women assured the country of a historic medal in rarely followed lawn bowls while judokas added two medals to country’s tally after weightlifter Ajay Singh drew a blank but Harjinder Kaur managed to bring home a third bronze and 7th medal for India from weightlifting events. Coming together from as diverse fields as police, teaching and administration, the quartet of Lovely Choubey, Rupa Rani Tirkey, Pinki and Nayanmoni Saikia, finally have something to answer back to naysayers.

The lawn bowls team will be gunning for historic gold medal when they face South Africa in the Women’s Fours final on Tuesday (August 2). India women hockey team will take on England in their next Pool A clash while the India, who are the defending men’s champion in Table Tennis, will face Singapore in the gold medal match. The Indian badminton team will also vie for gold as they face Malaysia in the Mixed Team finals.
