India will have its sights set on multiple medals as it begins the action on Sunday at the Asian Games 2026 in Aichi-Nagoya, Japan. The focus on the action-packed day will be the Indian cricket team, teqball star Quimcy Dsouza and shooters, including Elavenil Valarivan. The Harmanpreet Kaur-led cricket team, which is the defending champion, will take on Bangladesh in the second semi-final. The winner will be assured of at least a silver medal.
