India saw a perfect start to its athletics campaign at the 18th Asian Games as shot-putter Tajinderpal Singh Toor pocketed gold on Saturday. Notwithstanding Tajinder's record victory and three bronze medals by the squash trio of Joshna Chinappa, Dipika Pallikal and Saurav Ghosal, it has been a relatively dull day for India at the Games.
At present, India is placed at the eighth position on the leaderboard with seven gold, five silver and 17 bronze medals.
Meanwhile, Hima Das also broke the national record in the Women's 400m qualifiers on Saturday and would be out hunting for a medal in the final on day eight.
Both P.V. Sindhu and Saina Nehwal will be eyeing victory as they both face Thai opponents in the quarterfinals on Sunday.
