Asian Games 2023: India Finish With Historic 107 Medals. Pakistan’s Tally Is only 3

The Indian contingent impressed everyone with their brilliant performances at Asian Games 2023 and finished with a historic haul of 107 medals. It included 28 gold medals – a record for India in the history of the competition – as well as 38 silver medals and 41 bronze medals. India were on the verge of reaching the 100-medal mark at the start of Saturday’s order of play and with gold medals in men’s and women’s kabaddi, men’s cricket and men’s doubles badminton, they were able to finish the Asiad on a high.

On the other hand, Pakistan could only manage to win 3 medals at Asian Games 2023 – one silver and two bronze. The two bronze medals came in kabaddi and shooting while the silver medal came in the men’s team squash event where they were beaten by India in a hard-fought summit clash.

The Indian men’s kabaddi team emerged victorious after an hour of arguments to reclaim its Asian Games title, beating defending champions Iran 33-29 in a controversial final, which was temporarily suspended, on Saturday.

The women’s team survived by the skin of its teeth as it beat Chinese Taipei 26-25 in a dramatic final for the country’s 100th medal.

Satwiksairaj Rankireddy and Chirag Shetty earned India’s first-ever badminton gold medal at the Asian Games with a straight-game win over South Korea’s Choi Solgyu and Kim Wonho in Hangzhou on Sunday.
