Asian Games 2026 have entered their final stage, with India securing an impressive haul of 81 medals — 19 gold, 26 silver and 36 bronze — across a wide range of sporting disciplines in Aichi-Nagoya, Japan.
The Asian Games 2026 campaign received another major boost on Saturday when India defeated Pakistan by 19 runs in the men’s cricket final at Korogi Sports Park in Nisshin. The victory delivered India’s 19th gold medal of the Games and completed a memorable day for the Indian contingent.
The men’s cricket team successfully defended the title India won at the 2022 Hangzhou Asian Games, where cricket returned to the continental programme. India’s women’s cricket team had already retained its gold medal earlier in the Aichi-Nagoya competition.

Cricket triumph caps a remarkable medal-winning campaign

The India-Pakistan final was among the most closely followed events of the Games. India produced a competitive total before its bowlers held their nerve during Pakistan’s chase.
Pakistan appeared to build momentum during the latter stages of the innings, putting pressure on the Indian bowling attack. India, however, responded at crucial moments and eventually secured a 19-run victory.
Indian captain Shreyas Iyer credited the success to a collective team effort. Speaking to the official broadcasters after the final, he highlighted the contributions of the batters and bowlers and said that every player had stepped up when required.
The result gave India its 19th gold medal of the tournament and brought the men’s cricket campaign to a successful conclusion.

Archery and golf add more medals

India enjoyed another productive day in archery. Kumkum Mohod followed her women’s team recurve gold with another historic achievement, winning the women’s individual recurve gold medal.
Her performance also secured her a qualification place for the Los Angeles Olympic Games, adding further significance to her Asian Games success.
India also collected a bronze in the men’s individual recurve competition through Neeraj Chauhan.
Golf provided another highlight. Pranavi Urs captured the gold medal in the women’s individual event, while Urs, Aditi Ashok and Diksha Dagar combined to win silver in the women’s team competition.

India’s medal tally across multiple sports

Asian Games 2026

India’s success has not been limited to a handful of disciplines. Shooters were among the early medal winners, while athletics produced a substantial share of the country’s medal haul. Archery, boxing, wrestling, squash, sailing, golf, kabaddi, hockey, rowing, badminton, weightlifting, wushu, kurash, soft tennis, sepaktakraw and mixed martial arts have also contributed to the tally.
Among the notable individual performances were Mirabai Chanu in weightlifting, Gulveer Singh in athletics, Parul Chaudhary in distance running, Lovlina Borgohain in boxing and Sujeet Kalkal in wrestling.
Team events have also played a significant role. India won gold in both men’s and women’s kabaddi, while the women’s hockey team added another gold medal. The women’s cricket team also retained its continental title.
