Indian men's handball team are set to take on the Malaysian team in their first encounter in the Group 3 of the Handball event at the 2018 Asian Games.
The Indian team started the preliminary round in poor fashion as they suffered three defeats. The Indian side faced off against the teams from Chinese Taipei, Bahrain and Iraq in the build-up to the main round of the event but lost all three matches. However, they will hope to bounce back against the Malaysian side to start the competition on a bright note.
India have already secured two medals, one bronze and one gold, so far in the Asian Games. The likes of Apurvi Chandela and Ravi Kumar clinched a bronze in mixed team shooting yesterday. Meanwhile, wrestler Bajrang Punia defied all the odds to go on and dominate his weight category, as he went on to clinch his maiden Asian Games gold.
