Abhay Singh and Ananat Singh both brought silver medals for India after going down in their respective squash finals at the Asian Games. The hopes were high for the duo to bring home gold, but it wasn’t meant to be, as they lost in the gold-medal match. Abhay Singh lost to Ng Eain Yow of Malaysia in the men’s singles gold medal match, while Anahat went down against Sivasangari Subramaniam of Malaysia in the women’s singles gold medal match. However, Anahat became the first Indian to win a medal in the women’s singles squash event at the Asian Games.

She led for most of the contest, but the Chinese opponent clinched gold on her sixth and final attempt. Sarvesh Kushare also won silver in the men’s high jump. On the other hand, Tejaswin Shankar and Parul Chaudhary also came third, clinching bronze in the men’s decathlon and women’s 3000m steeplechase, respectively.
