Paris Olympics 2024 Day 2 Live updates: Manu Bhaker will be eyeing a medal.

Paris Olympics 2024 Day 2 Live updates: It’s a day when all the stars come under one roof. Day 2 of the Paris Olympics is where Day 1 left off for India. PV Sindhu began her campaign with a dominant win, defeating Maldives’ Razzaq in her women’s singles first round match. Meanwhile, Ramita Jindal made the cut in 10m air rifle women’s qualification round, finishing in fifth position. But Elavenil Valarivan missed out, finishing 10th. On the other hand, Sreeja Akula defeated Chirstina Kallberg of Sweden 4-0 (11-4, 11-9, 11-7, 11-8) to enter women’s singles round of 32.…Read More

Expectations are high of Manu Bhaker, who became the only Indian shooter to qualify for the final and who will be gunning for glory in the women’s 10m air pistol event. From a heartbreak in Tokyo, where her gun malfunctioned, Bhaker will be eyeing redemption and get India off the mark on the medal tally.

There’s more. Rohan Bopanna will play his first round of the men’s doubles match after rain forced the reschedule. Indian archers will be sharpening their arrows too. After both men’s and women’s teams qualified for the quarterfinal, today is a chance to progress further.

Nikhat Zareen, the two-time World Champion, also makes her Olympics debut today. Easily India’s best pugilist on show, India wants Nikhat to do what no boxer before her from the country has done – win either a gold or a silver medal. Lovlina Borgohain won a bronze at the Tokyo Games, but Nikhat is primed to go up a notch. The fact that she has lost just two bouts in the last two years, during which she also claimed a bronze medal at last year’s Asian Games is what makes her tough to beat. But the draws haven’t been too kind to Nikhat. She is likely to face the Chinese top seed of Wu Yu in the second round as well as one of the two women she has lost to, in the third.

In table tennis, we will also see Manika Batra in action. The legendary Achanta Sharath Kamal gets his Olympics campaign underway when he takes on Deni Kozul.

Here’s a proper break-up of India’s Day 2 schedule of the Paris Olympics-
