Asian Games 2018: India Schedule Today, Match List for August 22

Day four of the 2018 Asian Games will see Indian eyes firmly cast toward the shooting range wherein lies the promise of more medals, of course, not without obstacles in the form of stiff competition and heightened expectations.

Teenage sensation Manu Bhaker, fresh from her Commonwealth Gold, will be in action in the Women's 25m Pistol along with Rahi Sarnobat. Anjum Moudgil, who is a big medal prospect, will shoot for glory in the 3 Position 50m Rifle together with Gaayathri Nithyanandham. The morning will see the shooters shoot to determine placings followed by the finals later in the afternoon for both events.

Gurpreet Singh, Harpreet Singh and Naveen will look to add to the medal count from wrestling as they are involved in the Men's 77 kg, 87 kg and 130 kg categories respectively.

Plenty of interest in the swimming pool as Avinash Mani and Sajan Prakash will be looking to get past their Heats and into the finals in the Men's 100m Butterfly. Likewise with Sandeep Sejwal in the Men's 100m Backstroke. The Indian men's team is also in action in the 100m Freestyle relay.

Following a big win in their opening match, the Indian men's hockey team take on Hong Kong in their second Pool A game.

A big day on the tennis courts where India's players have made steady progress. Ramkumar Ramanathan and Prajnesh Guneswaran will attempt to make the quarters in the Men's Singles while Ankita Raina is looking to go into the semis in the Women's Singles. Rohan Bopanna and Divij Sharan along with the team of Ramanathan and S Nagal will try and force their way into the semis of the Men's Doubles. Bopanna is also in action in the Mixed Doubles. A busy day all around.

After Recurve action on Tuesday, the Compound archers make their bow on Wednesday. Again, tomorrow is just the ranking shootouts to determine the match-ups for the knock-outs. The women's team is the number 1 ranked team in the world while the men are 7th.

Rohit Kumar is in the repechage in the Men's Lightweight Double Sculls as he tries to get into medal contention. There are also Indians in the Women's Four and Men's Lightweight Eight.

Still not satisfied? You can tune into Wushu where four Indians are in semifinal action.
