India stormed into the Asian Games men’s kabaddi semifinals with a 48-25 win over Bangladesh on Wednesday. The victory was India’s third straight Group A win, following victories over Japan and South Korea, ahead of their final group match against Chinese Taipei.
India's men's kabaddi team maintained their unbeaten run at the 2026 Asian Games with a dominant 63–31 win over South Korea in Group A. India controlled the contest from the outset, built a 20-point half-time lead, and remained on course for a place at the top of the group.
India began their men’s kabaddi title defence at the 2026 Asian Games with a commanding 49–24 win over hosts Japan. Ashu Malik and the raiders led the attack, while India’s defence produced four All-Outs in the Group A opener.
Pawan Sehrawat says representing India at the 2026 Aichi-Nagoya Asian Games is a matter of immense pride and responsibility. The star raider believes the team’s expectation of winning gold will serve as motivation as India prepares for the kabaddi competition
