How did India fare on Day 4 of the Paris Olympics 2024? Check the full results

On Day 4, Manu Bhaker, an Indian shooter, made history by being the first female athlete from India to win several medals at the same Olympics. Bhaker, who took home the bronze in the women’s 10 air pistol singles competition, paired up with Sarabjot Singh to win another bronze in the mixed 10m air pistol competition for India. The Indian duo also made Olympic history by being the first to win a medal for India in a team competition.

The Indian hockey team won the Pool B match 2-0 over Ireland, extending their winning streak in the competition. India advanced to the quarterfinals thanks in part to the brace scored by captain Harmanpreet Singh.

Star Indian shuttlers Satwiksairaj Rankireddy and Chirag Shetty secured a commanding victory over Indonesia’s Fajar Alfian and Muhammad Rian Adrianto, winning 21-13, 21-13. They are the first Indian pair to reach the quarterfinals in the men’s doubles event at the Olympics.

The Indian boxers, Preeti Pawar, Jaismine Lamboria, and Amit Panghal, too had a dismal day in Paris as they lost their matches.
