Indian Boxers Guarantee Record 10 Medals at CWG 2026

India's boxers created history at the Commonwealth Games 2026 by guaranteeing a record 10 medals after another dominant day in Glasgow.

India's boxing contingent continued its remarkable campaign at the 2026 Commonwealth Games in Glasgow, creating history by guaranteeing 10 medals, the country's best-ever boxing performance at the Commonwealth Games. The achievement surpassed the previous record of seven medals won in Birmingham in 2022. The milestone came after another dominant day in the ring, with Indian boxers securing semifinal berths across multiple weight categories. Since losing semifinalists in Commonwealth Games boxing are awarded bronze medals, every boxer reaching the last four has already assured the country of a podium finish. The latest victories further strengthened India's position at the Games and underlined the growing depth of Indian boxing on the international stage.

The day began with Jaismine Lamboria, who became the latest Indian boxer to secure a medal by advancing to the semifinals. She was followed by Sakshi Choudhary, who delivered another composed performance to outclass her opponent and keep India's winning run intact. Arundhati Choudhary also booked her place in the last four after overcoming a tough challenge in the women's 70kg category. Earlier, Arundhati had revealed that she had to lose nearly 2 kilograms within a day to make weight before the bout, making her victory even more impressive. In the men's competition, Sachin Siwach continued his strong run with a convincing win, while Ankush Yadav dominated his quarterfinal to move a step closer to gold. Heavyweight boxer Narender Berwal rounded off another successful day for India by winning a hard-fought contest and ensuring yet another medal for the contingent.

With 10 medals now guaranteed, India has rewritten its own Commonwealth Games boxing record and will head into the semifinal stage with hopes of converting several assured bronzes into silver or gold medals. The performances also reflect the consistency of the current Indian boxing squad, which has impressed throughout the Glasgow Games with disciplined tactics and confident displays. The achievement comes alongside India's strong performances in athletics and para sports, adding further momentum to the country's overall medal campaign. As the competition enters its decisive phase, Indian boxers will now shift their focus from securing medals to fighting for places in the finals. The coming bouts will determine how many of these guaranteed podium finishes can be upgraded to gold or silver, but regardless of the final colour of the medals, the Glasgow campaign has already become the most successful boxing performance by India in Commonwealth Games history.
