Paris Olympics 2024: India's schedule today 4 August 2024 Sunday
Maheshwari Chauhan will look to make into the women's skeet final

India faced several heart break on 3rd August at the Paris Olympics as Manu Bhaker had to settle for an unfortunate 4th spot in women’s 25m pistol shooting as her 2 shot out of 5 in the last series costed her a possible 3rd medal to create history. Deepika Kumari missed out on a medal as she was knocked out in the quarter finals of women’s individual archery and boxer Nishant Dev who fought bravely against the reigning Pan American champion from Mexico and was leading in starting 2 rounds lost 4-1 at the end to bow out of Olympics and miss out on a medal.

Another day will mean that India will have more chances to bag more medals as the Paris Olympics enters the last week. Lovlina Borgohain will have her task cut out in the quarter finals against top seed of China to win and again stand on Olympic podium. Indian hockey team will face a tricky test in England in the quarter finals while a resurgent Lakshya Sen will face a tough test in Viktor Axelsen in badminton men’s singles semi final. He has already reached where no other man has done it in the singles badminton and now would want to go a step ahead.
