Dipika, Joshna and Saurav have assured three medals for India in squash. With young 15-year-old Anish Bhanwala in red-hot form, one would hope the boy to make the country proud with his fine form in Men’s 25m Rapid Fire Pistol. Star female shuttlers PV Sindhu and Saina Nehwal would be itching to prove their mettle and make up for the poor performance by their male counterparts in the singles event. There are so many matches to look forward to and cheer for our athletes as they give their best to take India to newer heights at the 18th Asiad.
