India’s Asian Games schedule for Saturday includes archery qualifications, athletics finals, shooting medal events, a women’s kabaddi gold-medal match and several team competitions. The supplied live report lists fixtures and timings but does not provide results.

India’s Asian Games campaign on Saturday includes a broad programme of qualification rounds, finals and medal events, according to India Today’s live coverage. Archery is scheduled to begin with men’s recurve individual and team qualifications involving Dhiraj Bommadevara, Neeraj Chauhan and Yashdeep Bhoge. Women’s compound qualification features Jyothi Surekha Vennam, Prithika Pradeep and Taniparthi Chikitha.

India’s shooting team is due to compete in the women’s 50-metre rifle three-position event. Vidarsa K Vinod, Ashi Chouksey and Tilottama Sen are listed for both the team and individual competitions, including medal events subject to qualification. Athletics includes the men’s marathon, with Sawan Barwal and Kartik Jayaraj Karkera scheduled to compete.

Tejaswin Shankar and Thowfeeq Noushad are listed in the decathlon, while Animesh Kujur is due to race in the men’s 200 metres. The women’s kabaddi team is scheduled to face Iran in a gold-medal match. Canoe sprint, badminton, fencing, equestrian, table tennis, surfing, sailing, squash and esports are also included in the day’s programme.

Badminton fixtures include Lakshya Sen and Ayush Shetty in the men’s singles, and PV Sindhu and Unnati Hooda in the women’s singles. India’s fencing teams are scheduled to face Indonesia and the Philippines in round-of-16 matches. The supplied material is a schedule rather than a results report.

It therefore confirms the planned events and participants but does not establish which athletes advanced or won medals.
