India at Olympics 2021 today (Day 6, 29th July) predictions: Who could win medals?

Indian archer Atanu Das is expected to defeat Deng Yu-Cheng in the 1/32 elimination stage. Shuttler PV Sindhu is a favorite as well to win her match and progress to the quarterfinals.

Satish Kumar and Mary Kom will face their respective opponents in Round of 16 bouts on Thursday. Both players have the potential to progress to the next round of the event.

Once again, all Indians will have their hopes pinned on Manu Bhaker and Rahi Sarnobat to win a medal at the Women's 25m pistol event. Bhaker will look to shake off her disappointment of missing out on a medal twice at the ongoing Games and put in her best efforts one last time.
