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.

The biggest focus will be on weightlifter Sanjana, who will compete in the women's 77kg final with hopes of adding another gold medal to India's tally. India has already enjoyed a successful campaign in weightlifting, collecting seven medals, including two golds, and Sanjana will aim to continue that momentum.

The women's 77kg final is scheduled to begin at 2:00 pm, while the men's 94kg and women's 86kg medal events will also take place later in the day.

Sachin Siwach One Victory Away from Assured Medal

Indian boxing will witness an important day as six boxers enter quarter-final action. The spotlight will be on Sachin Siwach, who faces Botswana's boxer in the men's 60kg division.

A victory will guarantee Sachin at least a bronze medal because both losing semi-finalists receive bronze medals under Commonwealth Games boxing regulations.

Women's boxer Sakshi Chaudhary will open India's campaign in the 51kg quarter-finals against an opponent from Northern Ireland. Arundhati Chaudhary will later compete in the women's 70kg category against a New Zealand boxer.

In the men's events, Ankush Yadav will contest the 80kg quarter-final against a boxer from Seychelles, while Narendra Barwal will face Samoa in the men's 90kg+ division.

Jasmine Lamboria will conclude India's boxing schedule with her women's 57kg quarter-final against England.

Athletics Offers Multiple Medal Chances

India's athletics contingent will also have a busy day featuring several medal contenders.

National record holder Murali Sreeshankar will headline the men's long jump final alongside Lokesh Satyanathan. Sreeshankar enters the event as one of India's strongest medal hopes after consistently performing at major international competitions over the past two seasons.

Women's shot put athlete Manpreet Kaur will compete in the final later in the evening, while long-distance runner Parul Chaudhary will challenge for medals in the women's 3000m steeplechase final.

Earlier in the day, Tajinderpal Singh Toor and Samardeep Singh Gill will compete in the men's shot put qualification round.

Indian sprinter Animesh Kujur will begin his campaign in the men's 200m heats.

In para athletics, Devendra Kumar and Sagar Thayat will compete in the men's discus throw F42-44/F61-64 final, while Mohammad Basil M and Dilip Mahadu Gavit will participate in the men's 100m T47 final.

Swimming and Para Swimming Schedule

Swimming will begin with Sajan Prakash and Aneesh S Gowda competing in the men's 200m freestyle heats. If they qualify, they will return later in the evening for the medal race.

Aryan Nehra will compete directly in the men's 1500m freestyle final, where India will hope for another strong finish.

In para swimming, Suyash Narayan Jadhav and Chaitanya Vishwas Kulkarni will participate in the men's 50m freestyle S7 heats. Qualification would see both swimmers return for the final later in the day.

India Looking to Climb Medal Table

India enters Day 6 with 12 medals overall following another productive day that featured historic performances in athletics and weightlifting.

With medal opportunities spread across multiple sports, Indian officials will be optimistic about improving the country's overall standing in the Commonwealth Games medal table as competition continues in Glasgow.
