India's forte is certainly vault, as proved many times before. With Dipa Karmakar in the squad, they might have managed to improve their final ranking a little bit.
The eighteenth edition of the pan-Asian games come to us from Indonesian cities of Jakarta and Palembang, where over five hundred and fifty Indian sportspersons will try to win medals for the country.
The 4th day of the multi-sporting extravaganza has been excellent for India so far. Rahi Sarnobat won another gold in shooting by bagging the top spot in the Women's 25m Pistol event. The shooter from Kolhapur has created history by becoming becomes India's first female shooter to win Gold in an individual event at Asiad.
Elsewhere, two medals were confirmed in tennis -- Ankita Raina confirmed her medal after defeating Chong Euduce Wong of Hong Kong 6-4, 6-1 to enter the top 4 in women's singles while the Men's duo of Rohan Bopanna/Divij Sharan also won their quarterfinal encounter 6-3, 5-7, 10-1 and entered the semis, thereby confirming a medal.
Roshinina Devi, Santosh Kumar, Bhanu Pratap Singh, and Narender Grewal also have chances of confirming a medal as they play their semifinal bouts in Wushu.
Coming to Gymnastics, there is a bad news for Indian fans as Dipa Karmakar has pulled out of the team final due to a knee injury during training. She is expected to recover soon and compete in the balance beam final on Friday.
Now, Pranati Nayak, Pranati Das, Aruna Budda Reddy and Mandira Choudhury will be representing India in the Artistic Gymnastics Women's TEAM FINAL. Will they be able to bag another medal for India?
