Still, it could be tricky as Malaysia will be desperate to reclaim the mixed team title.” I hope India will also retain the mixed team title, but I am not confident about the mixed doubles pair. Bhattacharya expects “four to five” gold medals, including the mixed team gold. This time they will be more prepared and motivated after the Thomas Cup win. Like in all doubles events, India has decided to go with one pair in mixed doubles. 8, head to Arena Birmingham as the CWG second seed in the men’s doubles. “Both Srikanth and Lakshya are equally good, and gold medal prospects for India. I feel Lakshya will have an edge over Srikanth as he is coming into the Games fresh. The fact is that the talk of India sweeping badminton is itself a testament to the country’s improvement in the sport. India can certainly dominate the singles and men’s doubles events. That leaves Malaysia, five times the mixed team champion in CWG, as the threat for India. Recently, however, India has upstaged Malaysia in top events. World Championships silver medallist Kidambi Srikanth and bronze medallist Lakshya Sen will be expected to make the moment count. With a win in her most recent competition – the Singapore Open Super 500, Sindhu, who lost to Saina in Gold Coast, is eyeing her maiden individual CWG gold.

Commonwealth Games 2022: Here is a look at the top Indian athletes who will be making their CWG debut in Birmingham.

Being in a sport that has been one of India’s strongholds at the Commonwealth Games over the years brings the weight of expectations and pressure. Lakshya Sen has become a popular name in badminton, all at the age of 21. Whenever the grappler steps to the mat, it is with the aim of improving himself in order to achieve that ultimate target. While he grabbed the National Championships title in 2020, a couple of serious bouts with injuries saw Jeremy underperform at the Asian Championships last year. The Sikkim lad will be determined to make an impact in his first Commonwealth Games appearance and grab the gold medal for India. His acceptance into the event last week ultimately saw Shankar board the flight to England. For the high jumper, the opportunity to appear at the Birmingham Games will be all about making a statement. The weightlifter was expected to replicate his success in the senior category competitions as well. The 22-year-old is the national record holder with a timing of 13.04 seconds. At the Birmingham Games, Yarraji has set herself a target of breaching the sub-13 second mark. As a result, the Commonwealth Games should prove to be a relatively easy challenge. The Indian is coming off a strong performance at the Eugene World Championships where he ended in seventh place. She stole the limelight when she clinched the World Championship title in the 52kg category.

The CGF insists the event is thriving as athletes prepare to compete in Birmingham, and also said it was working with Tom Daley following his condemnation ...

The atmosphere of the Commonwealth Games is always notably different to other events. With thousands of athletes having arrived in Birmingham, the sport should at least be enticing. According to Dame Louise Martin, the president of the CGF, they are working with Daley. We just had a general assembly, we heard from Birmingham, we heard from 2026, we announced that we’re going to have the Youth Games in Trinidad next year. Her organisation has tried to tackle that by initiating the first Commonwealth esports championships. Speaking before the opening ceremony, Katie Sadleir, the CEO of the Commonwealth Games Federation, was adamant that the event has not become irrelevant.

Tania Choudhury will also feature at the same time in the Women's Singles Sectional Play Round 1 event. Cricket makes only its second appearance at the Commonwealth Games in Birmingham, with women's event featuring for the first time. However, India faces a setback this year as Shooting -- where India boasted of multiple medal contenders at the Games -- has not been included in the final roster. The match is scheduled at 2 PM IST. Six hours later, they will take on Fiji in their second group game. India had finished a dismal 9th in the Women's Hockey World Cup earlier this month, winning only 1 match in six. India are currently ranked fourth in the all-time medal tally at the Commonwealth Games, but they are unlikely to make a climb anytime soon.

A look into the rules and point system of Lawn Bowls, a sport that has featured in every Commonwealth Games since 1930.

In case team A had managed to place three bowls closer to the target than team B’s closest bowl, it would have been awarded three points. The team which manages to place its bowls closer to the target wins the points for the end. The number of points awarded is determined by the number of bowls a team has managed to place closer than its opponent. On the other hand, in the multi-player formats, a team gets two throws per player. A team gets four attempts in the singles format. As the name suggests, Lawn Bowls is played on a green stretch of land.

Mohammad Hussamuddin (57kg) is the other Indian male boxer in the current batch who had medalled at the last edition. "Some of the top boxers were part of that tour. Add to the fact that the current batch was part of the Ireland tour, where they trained with some elite pugilists, which has raised expectations. Each one of them is hungry for success and keen to give their 100 per cent," Bhaskar Bhatt, India women's chief coach, told this newspaper from Birmingham. Then there are first-timers in the form of Nitu Ghanghas, a former youth world champion. MC Mary Kom, considered to be the face of Indian boxing, is not in the picture this time.

There are two rest periods during the game. The player or pair winning a rally adds a point to its score. Around 2000 years ago, badminton originated in Siam, China and was brought to England in 1870. The badminton mixed team events begin on Friday. India is clubbed in Group I and will begin their campaign on the first day against Pakistan. Top two teams advance to the knockouts from each of the four groups. I have changed a lot in 10 years, improved by leaps and bounds, have tons of experience behind me now and it does feel great to make it to the Commonwealth Games team again,” Ashwini said. They’ll once again look to conjure a similar tale when the badminton event kicks off at the CWG on Friday, starting with the mixed team event.

How will the medal table look by the end of the day? Whatever happens, let’s hope that, in the words of Nadine Dorries, the Games “puts Birmingham on the map”. It was famously impossible to locate the United Kingdom’s second-largest city before today. She will be up against Bermuda’s Flora Duffy, who pipped her to a gold medal in Tokyo. His main rival is New Zealand’s Hayden Wilde, with both expected to end up on the podium. The lawn bowls and para lawn bowls are well under way. It has featured at every Games bar 1966, when it was dropped owing to the lack of available bowling greens in Kingston, Jamaica. Missed the opening ceremony last night? She’s spoken about her excitement at taking part in the Games and experiencing “a noisy home crowd”. England are up next, with Laura Kenny leading the charge. England are now 28-0 up and, to be honest, a Sri Lanka comeback seems quite unlikely. It’s nice of Boatman to give someone else a turn. They post the slowest time so far at 4:24.701.

The men’s team first beat Barbados before thrashing Singapore while the women’s side prevailed over South Africa and Fiji.

Along with Mirabai, Sanket Sargar and Gururaja will be keen to contribute to country's medals tally.

The Aussies have a multitude of options for who they could use on the relay tonight, and are not only the gold-medal favorites, but are a serious threat to reestablish the world record. Ang’s Singapore teammate Nick Mahabir got close to Ang’s national record in the 200 breast at U.S Nationals, so we’ll see if Ang can respond from across the Atlantic. But with Scotland’s Toni Shaw sitting comfortably in second behind Pascoe, the Aussies have their work cut out for them if they want to have another event with multiple swimmers standing on the podium. They didn’t race heats of this event during prelims, so this final will be our first look at the field. However, because these men didn’t race in the morning, it’s certainly possible that we’ll be surprised by one of the swimmers in the outside lanes. There are also four semifinals on tap: the men’s 50 fly, women’s 50 breast, men’s 100 back, and women’s 100 fly. Wales’ Daniel Jervis snuck into the final in eighth–look for him to make a move tonight. She got within .11 seconds of it last year, and having the race on day 1 of the meet is a huge advantage. There are seven medal events tonight, with finals of the men’s 400 free, women’s 400 IM, women’s 200 free, men’s 100 back S9, women’s 100 free S9, men’s 200 breast, and the mixed 400 freestyle relay. However, he’ll have to deal with Elijah Winnington, the new World Champion and fifth-fastest performer of all-time.

Superb in the swimming pool and tremendous on the track, Australia is in a dominant position on the medal table after a superb opening day in Birmingham.

The quartet initially set a Games record of 4:14.605 when qualifying fastest and lowered the time to 4:12.234 when far too good for New Zealand in the final. Australia’s world-beating cricketers were stretched to the brink by India in the first ever women’s match held at a Commonwealth Games but ultimately prevailed by three wickets. Tokyo gold medallist Zac Stubblety-Cook also has a Commonwealth Games gold medal to add to his trophy cabinet after winning the 200m breaststroke in Friday’s penultimate final. At the Lee Valley VeloPark, Jess Gallagher and her pilot Caitlin Ward combined to win the nation’s first gold medal in Birmingham in the women’s tandem B Para-track event. Titmus, a dual-gold medallist in Tokyo, drew on all her star power to hold off compatriot Mollie O’Callaghan in the 200m freestyle. The nation also filled 11 of the 21 podium spots in a dominant display, though Canadian teenage sensation Summer McIntosh was the standout swimmer when producing an incredible display to win the 400m individual medley by nearly eight seconds.

She was still into her teens then, and has continued to evolve as an international cricketer over more than a decade. She was West Indies’ standout batter at the World Cup earlier this year, and led the run-scoring charts in both - Women's Super50 Cup as well as the Twenty20 Blaze at home recently, offering plenty of promise ahead of the campaign.

The 27-year old is expected to grab a gold for India at the event. Commonwealth Games 2022 Live Updates, Day 2 Schedule of India: The “killer instinct” was nowhere to be seen when Australia put the Indian women’s cricket team under the pump but the country’s shuttlers and paddlers steamrolled their hapless rivals on the opening day of Commonwealth Games on Day 1.

A pair of Welsh freestylers made the final between Matthew Richards (No. 5 seed) and Calum Jarvis (No. 6 seed). We’ll see how much more defending Olympic champ Emma McKeon has left in the tank tonight.

CWG 2022: India will take on Wales in its second group A women's hockey match at the Commonwealth Games on July 30.

In the second quarter, Neha’s shot was deflected off into the goal by a Ghanaian defender, with India going 2-0 up at half-time. ( FOLLOW THE BLOG LIVE) India will take on Wales in its second group A women’s hockey match at the Commonwealth Games 2022 on July 30, Saturday at the University of Birmingham Hockey and Squash centre.

Some of the most anticipated events include the women's 50 breast, where South African sprint star Lara van Niekerk is looming.

Anna Hopkin (53.81) posted the other sub-54 split for runner-up England. Summer McIntosh led off with a 54.62 for third-place Canada. With a back half featuring world champion Mollie O’Callaghan (52.66) and Olympic champ Emma McKeon (52.04), Australia cruised to victory by nearly six seconds. Lewis Clareburt took nearly two seconds off his personal best from last summer’s Olympics, demolishing the Commonwealth Games and Commonwealth records en route to a victory. Shayna Jack led the way, touching in 24.33, while Meg Harris (24.41) and Emma McKeon (24.51) were right behind. Neither superstar backstroker was on top of their game tonight, as they’ve both been well under 58 seconds before, however, we can expect they’re saving their best racing for the final. Australia looks to be building out it’s men’s breaststroke group as they had 3 swimmers advance to the final, all 3 of whom were under 1:00 tonight. He also won Silver at the Parlaympic Games last summer in Tokyo. It was a thrilling race, but Scotland’s Duncan Scott had the superior back half tonight, pulling away from Tom Dean and Elijah Winnington by just enough to secure his 2nd Commonwealth Games individual Gold of his career. England’s Imogen Louise Clark ripped a 30.02 to take down her own British Record of 30.04, which has stood since 2018. South Africa’s Lara van Niekerk rocketed to victory tonight, touching as the only woman under 30 seconds. Ben Proud left no doubt as he tore to victory in the 50 fly final tonight, shattering his own 8-year-old Commonwealth Games Record of 22.93. The Gold marks Proud’s 4th individual CG Gold of his career, and his 2nd CG title in the 50 fly. The only woman to have been under 30 seconds in this field, van Niekerk stands an excellent chance at taking down the Commonwealth Record as well in the event.
