- India begins Commonwealth Games 2026 campaign with Lawn Bowls on July 23
- Top medal prospects are in Athletics, Weightlifting, and Boxing
- Neeraj Chopra and Mirabai Chanu lead gold medal hopes for India
India's campaign for the Commonwealth Games 2026 begins on Thursday (July 23) with Lawn Bowls, an event that earned the country one gold and one silver medal in the 2022 Birmingham Games. With the roster for this edition scaled down, India's top medal prospects primarily revolve around three powerhouse disciplines: Athletics, weightlifting, and boxing. Leading the charge is javelin star Neeraj Chopra, who aims for gold but is set to face his biggest competitor, the reigning Olympic champion Arshad Nadeem from Pakistan, in the event. Athletics would also see India pin their hopes on long jumper Murali Sreeshankar, triple jumper Praveen Chithravel, and distance runner Gulveer Singh.
In weightlifting, Olympic medallist Mirabai Chanu stands as a clear gold favourite in the women's 48kg event, with the likes of Bindyarani Devi and Gyaneshwari Yadav also eyeing a spot on the podium. The boxing contingent is headlined by Olympic medallist Lovlina Borgohain and world champion Jaismine Lamboria, supported by gold-contenders Sakshi Chaudhary and Preeti Pawar.
Outside the main trio, heavyweights Tulika Maan in judo, the Lawn Bowls squad, and world-medallist Soman Rana in Para-Athletics are some of India's brightest podium chances.
