With weightlifting starting from Saturday and Mirabai Chanu in action, India will be expected to open their medals tally. Watch live!
India’s second day at the Commonwealth Games 2022 will be highlighted by weightlifter Mirabai Chanu’s title defence.
The Tokyo 2020 silver medallist won the gold medal at the 2018 Gold Coast CWG and will be looking to keep hold of her title while competing in the women’s 49kg category at the National Exhibition Centre (NEC) in Solihull on Saturday.
Mirabai Chanu won’t be the only Tokyo Olympic medallist who will start her Birmingham 2022 campaign on Saturday, with Tokyo 2020 bronze medallist Lovlina Borgohain also in action in the women’s 70kg boxing category.
She will start her campaign against Kiwi boxer Ariane Nicholson in the round of 16.
A big focus on the day will be on the four weightlifters in action on the day, including Mirabai Chanu. With weightlifting being one-day events for each category, medals will be given out on the same day.
Bindyarani Devi, in women’s 55kg weightlifting, will be another top contender besides Chanu.
Indian badminton stars PV Sindhu, Kidambi Srikanth and Lakshya Sen will be in action in the mixed team event.
The women’s hockey team will also be playing their Pool match against Wales.
