Kumkum managed only two 8s, while Dhiraj contributed a 9 and a 10, but Zhu and Li combined for 37 to put China 4-0 ahead.Facing the prospect of the match ending in the third set, India responded strongly. Kumkum opened with an 8 before hitting a 10 with her second arrow, while Dhiraj added a 10 and a 9 to take India to 37. China needed 18 points from their final two arrows to seal the gold, but after Zhu's 10, Li could manage only a 7. India won the set 37-36 to stay alive at 2-4.The fourth set went down to the final arrow. India posted 37, with Kumkum hitting a 9 and a 10 and Dhiraj adding a pair of 9s. China needed 19 from their final two arrows to win the match.

India's high-profile friendlies against Brazil and Uruguay will be overseen by a set of referees from Uzbekistan, with three of the four officials having officiated at the 2026 FIFA World Cup.

<nh-chunk-delimit />The All India Football Federation (AIFF) has enlisted the Uzbek officials for the two international friendlies, with experienced referee Ilgiz Tantashev expected to take charge of India&apos;s clash against Brazil.Tantashev is one of Asia&apos;s most experienced referees and has officiated at several major international competitions, including the 2024 Paris Olympics, the FIFA Club World Cup and two AFC Asian Cups.

Tantashev was also part of the officiating contingent at the 2026 FIFA World Cup.However, his World Cup campaign attracted attention after he handled France&apos;s group-stage match against Paraguay. Tantashev did not show a yellow card to any Paraguay player during the match, despite France later expressing concerns over the number of aggressive challenges their players faced.The AIFF opted to request referees from Uzbekistan because of their recent experience at the World Cup.&quot;We asked Uzbekistan to send their referees because they officiated at the World Cup.

Boxer Lovlina Borgohain secures Asian Games gold on birthdayIndian pugilist Lovlina Borgohain marked her 29th birthday on Friday with an outstanding 5-0 unanimous victory over China's Bao Ziyi.

<nh-chunk-delimit /> This dominant win secured the women&apos;s 75kg boxing gold medal at the 2026 Asian Games in Aichi-Nagoya, Japan. Born on October 2, 1997, in Assam&apos;s Golaghat district, she cements her position as one of India&apos;s most decorated combat athletes. This latest triumph builds beautifully upon her historic Tokyo 2020 Olympics bronze and 2023 World Championship gold.Bao opened the bout aggressively by throwing rapid punches throughout the first round. Lovlina stayed patient, utilizing precise counter-attacks to edge the opening frame 3-2. Moving into the second round, the Chinese boxer continued to press forward. However, the Indian star took firm control by landing clean strikes, winning the round 4-1 to establish a comfortable 2-0 lead on the judges&apos; scorecards. During the final three minutes, Lovlina maintained her composed strategy. She invited her opponent forward while evading heavy damage and launching sharp counters, resulting in a unanimous 5-0 championship victory.<a href="https://m.dailyhunt.in/news/india/english/prameya+english-epaper-prameng/asian+games+indian+women+claim+maiden+recurve+archery+gold+against+tentime+world+champions+south+korea-newsid-n728910286" >Also Read: Asian Games: Indian Women claim maiden Recurve Archery Gold against ten-time world champions South Korea</a>This gold medal caps a spectacular tournament run for the birthday girl. She reached the final after a hard-fought 3-2 split decision win against Kazakhstan&apos;s Natalya Bogdanova in the semifinals. That crucial bout made her the first Indian woman boxer to reach consecutive Asian Games finals, having previously secured silver at the Hangzhou edition. Her impressive international resume now includes a 2022 Asian Championship gold and a 2026 Commonwealth Games silver. Honored with the Arjuna Award in 2020 and the Major Dhyan Chand Khel Ratna Award in 2021, her victory significantly boosts the national contingent&apos;s success. India now holds 70 total medals at the Aichi-Nagoya Games, comprising 12 gold, 24 silver, and 34 bronze.With Inputs from Agency Threads and Image Courtesy: ANI

Five-time world champions Brazil take on India in an international friendly at the Vivekananda Yuba Bharati Krirangan (Salt Lake Stadium) in Kolkata on Saturday (October 3) in what could be described as the biggest football the country is eveer going to see, 

<nh-chunk-delimit />Brazil, ranked fifth in the world, will meet India in their first-ever international meeting, bringing Real Madrid forward Vinicius Junior, Arsenal defender Gabriel Magalhaes, midfield star Bruno Guimaraes and veteran Marquinhos.<a href="https://m.dailyhunt.in/news/india/english/deccan+herald-epaper-deccan/india+give+panama+the+blues+to+produce+stunning+draw-newsid-n728203687" >India give Panama the blues to produce stunning draw</a>The Brazil fixture is the second of three heavyweight games for India, with them having played Panama in Bengaluru and set to face Uruguay on October 6 at the same venue in Kolkata. For India, ranked 138th, the occasion is as much about testing how far they have come as it is about the spectacle.They have never qualified for a World Cup and failed to qualify for the 2027 Asian Cup in Saudi Arabia, underlining the huge gulf between the Blue Tigers and Asia's stronger teams.India withdrew from the inaugural FIFA ASEAN Cup to accommodate the Brazil fixture after the two competitions created a scheduling clash.For Brazil, it is another step in Carlo Ancelotti's rebuilding process after they were knocked out by Norway in the 2026 World Cup pre-quarters.The Italian coach has mixed established internationals with younger players, with several members of the squad in line for senior debuts as he looks towards the next cycle.Vinicius is the biggest attraction and he scored and created Brazil's third goal in their recent 4-2 win over Australia and remains one of the most dangerous players in the squad.Marquinhos and Magalhaes will provide experience and Bruno Guimaraes offers quality in midfield.The Khalid Jamil side are coming on the back of a gritty 1-1 draw against Panama in Bengaluru on September 25, taking the lead through Ryan Williams.That performance suggested a developing identity built around compact defending, direct transitions and attacking the spaces available.Brazil will test every part of it as India are unlikely to enjoy sustained possession and could spend long periods defending around their own box.Williams and Ashique Kuruniyan can provide the pace needed to make Brazil run towards their own goal, while Anwar Ali's willingness to step forward and engage attackers will be one to watch out for.SquadsIndia:Goalkeepers: Albino Gomes, Gurpreet Singh Sandhu, Prabhsukhan Singh Gill, Som Kumar. Defenders: Abhishek Singh Tekcham, Akash Mishra, Anwar Ali, Bijoy Varghese, Hmingthanmawia Ralte, Jay Gupta, Pramveer, Ricky Meetei Haobam. Midfielders: Anirudh Thapa, Ashique Kuruniyan, Farukh Choudhary, Lalengmawia Ralte, Macarton Nickson, Mohammed Sanan, Ricky Shabong, Sahal Abdul Samad.Forwards: Edmund Lalrindika, Irfan Yadwad, Manvir Singh, Rahim Ali, Ryan Williams, Vikram Partap Singh.Brazil:Goalkeepers: Hugo Souza, Pedro Morisco, OtavioDefenders: Arthur Dias, Douglas Santos, Gabriel Magalhaes, Jair, Marquinhos, Matheuzinho, Mauro Junior, Vitor Reis, WesleyMidfielders: Andrey Santos, Breno Bidon, Bruno Guimaraes, Danilo Santos, Douglas Luiz, Gabriel BontempoForwards: Endrick, Stephen, Joao Pedro, Pedro, Rayan, Samuel Lino, Vinicius Junior.Match starts at 7.30pm.

Kadaba: A candidate appearing for the Karnataka Police Constable (Civil) Recruitment-2026 has been accused of producing fake documents while attempting to participate in the physical endurance and physical efficiency tests at  Mangala Stadium  in Mangaluru on September 28. 

<nh-chunk-delimit />The incident came to light when officials at the registration desk checked the candidate’s credentials against the list of eligible candidates using the software provided by the Karnataka Examination Authority (KEA).According to the complaint, Yajesh B J Rai, son of Jayachandra Rai and a resident of Kodimbala in Kadaba taluk, arrived at the registration desk carrying a call letter bearing hall ticket number CPC5225446.Candidate’s details not found in recruitment recordsAt the registration desk, personnel on duty, CPC-446 Mahadev and HC-46 Purnesh, verified the candidate’s details through the software provided for the recruitment process.However, the candidate’s details could not be found in the list of eligible candidates.Officials also checked the relevant recruitment records and found that the candidate’s name, registration number and application number were absent from the 1:5 list prepared for the Karnataka Police Constable (Civil) Recruitment-2026.The 1:5 list is used in the recruitment process to identify candidates called for the physical endurance and physical efficiency tests.As the candidate’s details were not available in the authorised records, officials did not permit him to participate in the physical tests.Documents found suspicious during scrutinyThe call letter and other documents produced by the candidate were subsequently examined by the officials.According to the complaint, the documents appeared to be fake during preliminary scrutiny.The discrepancy between the documents produced by the candidate and the official recruitment records raised concerns among the officials conducting the registration process.Since the candidate could not be verified as an eligible participant through the recruitment database and his details were also absent from the relevant 1:5 list, he was prevented from proceeding with the physical tests.The incident was subsequently recorded in the proceedings of the physical endurance and physical efficiency tests conducted at Mangala Stadium on September 28.Complaint filed seeking legal actionFollowing the incident, a complaint was filed seeking legal action against Yajesh B J Rai.The complaint alleges that the candidate created and produced fake documents with the intention of cheating in the police recruitment process.The allegations relate specifically to the documents presented during registration and the attempt to participate in the recruitment tests despite his details not appearing in the official list of eligible candidates.The complaint has sought action in accordance with the law over the alleged creation and production of the documents.Recruitment process under scrutinyThe physical endurance and physical efficiency tests form an important stage of the Karnataka Police Constable (Civil) recruitment process.Candidates called for the tests are required to establish their eligibility through the prescribed recruitment records and documentation before participating in the physical assessments.In this case, the registration personnel carried out verification before allowing the candidate to enter the testing process. The verification revealed that the details mentioned in the documents could not be matched with the official records available through the recruitment system.The candidate was consequently stopped from participating in the tests, and the matter was formally recorded.The incident highlights the verification process followed at recruitment centres, where candidate details and documents are checked before applicants are permitted to proceed to subsequent stages.Investigation and legal action underwayThe complaint has now been submitted for further investigation and legal action.The allegations against Yajesh B J Rai are subject to investigation, and the authenticity and origin of the documents produced by him will have to be established through the legal process.Investigating authorities are expected to examine the documents, recruitment records and circumstances surrounding their production and presentation during the physical tests.The September 28 proceedings at Mangala Stadium and the complaint filed by the officials will form part of the material available for the investigation.Further action will be taken based on the findings of the investigation and applicable legal provisions.

Asian Games 2026: Who was Kanti Shah? India have continued their strong run at the Asian Games 2026 and, at the time of writing on Friday (Oct 2), have won 12 gold, 25 silver and 34 bronze medals.

<nh-chunk-delimit /> As the country looks to add more medals in the final stages of the quadrennial event, it is worth revisiting the story of Khamlillal &ldquo;Kanti&rdquo; Shah, India&rsquo;s first-ever Asian Games medallist.Who was Kanti Shah?Khamlillal &ldquo;Kanti&rdquo; Shah (October 13, 1920 - May 1989) was an Indian swimmer and water polo player who made history at the inaugural Asian Games in 1951. He became India&rsquo;s first-ever Asian Games medallist by winning silver in the men&rsquo;s 100m backstroke at the New Delhi Games.Kanti Shah&rsquo;s Asian Games RecordKanti Shah won three medals at the 1951 Asian Games. He claimed silver in the men&rsquo;s 100m backstroke, won bronze as part of India&rsquo;s men&rsquo;s 3x100m medley relay team and was also a member of the Indian water polo team that won the gold medal.His three-medal haul made Shah one of the notable Indian performers at the inaugural edition of the Asian Games and placed his name in the history of Indian sport as the country&rsquo;s first medallist at the continental event.Kanti Shah&rsquo;s AgeKanti Shah was born on October 13, 1920, and died in May 1989. He was 68 years old at the time of his death.Kanti Shah at the OlympicsShah also represented India at the Olympic Games. He competed in the men&rsquo;s 100m backstroke at the 1948 Summer Olympics in London and again at the 1952 Summer Olympics in Helsinki. He also participated in the water polo tournament at the 1952 Olympics.Kanti Shah&rsquo;s Reference in India&rsquo;s Asian Games JourneyMore than seven decades after Kanti Shah created history at the inaugural Asian Games, India have established themselves as one of the leading sporting nations in the continent. Shah&rsquo;s silver medal in the 100m backstroke came at the beginning of India&rsquo;s Asian Games journey, which has since seen the country produce champions across swimming, athletics, hockey, shooting, wrestling, boxing, badminton, archery and several other disciplines.India at Asian Games 2026India have won 12 gold, 25 silver and 34 bronze medals at the Asian Games 2026 as of Friday, October 2. With several events still remaining, the Indian contingent will look to add to its medal tally before the conclusion of the Aichi-Nagoya Games.From Kanti Shah becoming India&rsquo;s first Asian Games medallist in 1951 to the country&rsquo;s current generation of athletes competing for medals in 2026, India&rsquo;s journey at the continental Games has spanned more than seven decades and produced numerous historic sporting moments.

<nh-chunk-delimit /><ul><li>India secures six boxing medals in Aichi-Nagoya, surpassing its previous Games tally</li></ul>Olympic bronze medallist Lovlina Borgohain ended India's 12-year wait for an Asian Games women's boxing gold medal, defeating China's Ziyi Bao by a unanimous 5-0 decision in the 75kg final on Friday.The victory came on Lovlina's 29th birthday, giving the Assam boxer a memorable gold-medal gift as she improved on the silver she won at the previous edition of the Asian Games.Lovlina also became only the second Indian woman to win an Asian Games boxing gold, joining legendary MC Mary Kom, who claimed the 51kg flyweight title at the 2014 Games in Incheon.&quot;Today is my birthday. It's a very special birthday, I'm feeling really good. I thought I'd have to gift a gold medal on my birthday. It's the first time that I got a present for myself. I gave it my all. I didn't think for a second that I would lose,&quot; Lovlina said after her victory.<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-dnt="true" data-theme="light">

The tactics resulted in a scrappy contest, with the Chinese boxer frequently getting into clinches.Lovlina, in a departure from her usual approach, started aggressively and landed several early punches. Bao responded with combinations of her own, but the Indian finished the opening round strongly with clean, heavy shots to edge it 3-2 on the judges' cards.Bao came out aggressively in the second round, attempting to get inside Lovlina's reach. The Indian initially kept her opponent at bay before finding her range towards the end of the round and landing a series of clean punches to take it 4-1.The pattern continued in the final round, with Bao throwing frequently but struggling to land cleanly. Lovlina stayed compact in defence, picked her moments to counter and maintained her advantage.With the outcome increasingly in her favour, Lovlina slowed the pace in the closing stages and avoided unnecessary exchanges, keeping Bao at distance to see out the contest.The victory also marked a measure of redemption for Lovlina, who had lost to another Chinese boxer, Li Qian, in the final at the previous Asian Games to settle for silver. This time, she ensured there was no repeat.&quot;It was a very tough fight. But I was always thinking that I just have to win. The last round was very tough. I was winning by 2-1 in the first and second round. So I thought I have to just win the third round,&quot; Lovlina said.&quot;The opponent was very strong. I was playing with her for the first time. So I had no idea how she was going to play. I was motivating myself that I have to win. I don't want to lose.&quot;Indian boxers have already surpassed their medal haul from the previous Asian Games, with the contingent assured of six medals in Aichi-Nagoya.Priya Ghanghas (60kg), Kapil Pokhariya (90kg) and Narender Berwal (+90kg) have secured bronze medals, while Parveen Hooda (65kg) and Ankush Panghal (80kg) are set to fight for gold later on Friday.India's best-ever boxing performance at the Asian Games came at Guangzhou in 2010, where the contingent won nine medals - two gold, three silver and four bronze.The strong showing in Aichi-Nagoya follows a record-breaking campaign by Indian boxers at the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow last month.With PTI inputs

We are overjoyed to have won a gold medal at the Asian Games for the first time. Our team bonding was incredibly strong, so we are very happy. We didn't come here with the mindset that we had to win gold. We simply focused on the fact that we had worked hard together for the past 2-3 months for this very day.

Indian athlete Vithya Ramraj, who made history at the ongoing Asian Games in Japan by breaking legendary PT Usha's long-standing women's 400 m hurdles titles, expressed happiness over her feat and hoped that it would encourage youngsters to take up sport and gain more belief.

<nh-chunk-delimit /> Vithya spoke to ANI on the sidelines of the felicitation event by Tamil Nadu Sports Minister Aadhav Arjuna for the athletes who made India proud at the Asian Games by winning medals. Medalists Vishal TK, G Kamalini, Baranica Elangovan and Abinaya Rajarajan were also present at the event.Vithya won three medals at the Aichi-Nagoya Asian Games -- gold in the women's 4x400m relay, silver in the mixed 4x400m relay and bronze in the women's 400m hurdles, where she also broke the 42-year-old national record of legendary athlete PT Usha. Vithya clocked a personal best of 54.75 seconds in the women's 400m hurdles final to win bronze and erase Usha's national record of 55.42 seconds, set at the 1984 Los Angeles Olympics.'I created history as Vithya Ramraj'Speaking to ANI, Vithya said about breaking the record, &quot;I am so happy. I am so proud of it because everywhere I-in the last three years, I did not break the record; I equalled it. But my mind was saying, &quot;When are you going to break it?&quot; Everyone would ask the question, &quot;You equalled Ma'am's record, when are you going to break it?&quot; So, I did that. After everyone said it, I created history, I think, as Vithya Ramraj. So, I'm happy about that.&quot;'Without support, we cannot go higher'She also thanked the state government and the Tamil Nadu Olympic Association for their support, acknowledging that athletes need support to reach the highest level of success. &quot;Without support, we cannot go to this much higher stage. We want to perform, but without support... So, the State Government support was so good. I was in the Elite scheme. In that scheme, I utilised it. Then Japan was so good. We went to Tsukuba University, it was so nice. The experience was happy,&quot; she recalled.Hopes success will fuel youngsters' beliefVithya reflected on the social media fame achieved after breaking PT Usha's record and how no one knew her before that. Now she hopes that her success will fuel youngsters' belief and ambition to take up sport. &quot;In the last Asian Games, I equalled it; it was different. The feeling was extremely different. But this year, I broke it, then I went for 55 seconds, the first Indian woman. The experience was so happy because, in these three days, I was going viral-viral videos on YouTube, Instagram. So, I am happy. Before, no one knew Vithya Ramraj. Now, if I go anywhere, people see me and say, &quot;Yeah, you are Vithya Ramraj.&quot; So, I expect that everyone coming in, youngsters, wants to do it (take up sport) and they start believing,&quot; she added.On coaches also being felicitated by the state government, she said that the government agreed to it, saying that the coaches and athletes are equal.On receiving encouragement from the Tamil Nadu Leader of Opposition, Udhayanidhi Stalin on social media, she said, &quot;I was so happy. He is a big fan, not only in Tamil Nadu, After he posted a photo on Instagram, I got more views and more followers. So, I am so happy.&quot; (ANI)(Except for the headline, this story has not been edited by Asianet Newsable English staff and is published from a syndicated feed.)

New Delhi: India captain Shubman Gill has described the 2027 ICC Men's Cricket World Cup as &quot;unfinished business&quot;, saying players do not get too many opportunities to represent their country at the marquee tournament, and he is grateful to have another chance to do so.

<nh-chunk-delimit />The 2027 ICC Men&apos;s Cricket World Cup will kick off on October 2, with the final scheduled for November 21. Two-time champions India will open their 2027 ICC Men’s ODI World Cup campaign against defending champions Australia in Cape Town on October 7.The marquee clash offers Shubman Gill and his team an immediate rematch of the 2023 World Cup final, where Australia beat India in Ahmedabad, as their opening assignment of the 14-team mega event to be played in South Africa, Zimbabwe and Namibia.&quot;Yes, absolutely, it’s unfinished business because of the way we played throughout that World Cup. We were looking like the best team in the tournament. But World Cups are like that. You might play the entire tournament well, but you don’t play one game well, and that game could be the final of the World Cup,&quot; Gill said on JioStar ahead of the third ODI against the West Indies.&quot;So definitely, it is unfinished business. And as a player, you don’t get that many opportunities to represent your country in a World Cup. There could be two, three, four, five, you never know. So, every World Cup that you play for your country is a big honour. So, very grateful to be able to play another one,&quot; he added.Gill, who is set to lead India at the 2027 World Cup and said his focus is firmly on contributing to the team rather than individual milestones.&quot;I look at it more like a responsibility. Even while growing up, it was not really my dream that I had to become India’s captain one day. My dream was always to play for the country and win matches for my country, and that was always my aim growing up,&quot; he said.&quot;So, when I got this opportunity to captain, obviously, it was a big honour and a big responsibility. And I look at it as I have been given the responsibility of the team, and that makes things a lot easier for me. I don’t feel that much pressure about this thing because I feel that if I do things with the right intent, then everything will fall into place,&quot; Gill added.On becoming the No. 1-ranked ODI batter, Gill recalled achieving the feat during the 2023 World Cup but said rankings are no longer his primary concern.&quot;The first time when I became the number one-ranked batsman, I think it was during the 2023 World Cup. And it felt good. As a kid, you look at the rankings, so it was like a tick mark that, ‘Okay, once I want to become the number one-ranked ODI batsman,’&quot; he said.&quot;So it feels good, but I think right now it doesn’t matter as much. For me, it’s more important that if you step out in a match, go to bat, then how you can make the team win, how you can contribute,&quot; he added.
