The Commonwealth Games 2026 in Glasgow run through to August 2, and as of now India’s campaign is still very much in progress, with several marquee medal events still to come before the closing ceremony. This page will be updated with full highlights once the Games conclude, but here is what to expect from the closing stretch and what could shape India’s final standing.
The biggest name still in action is Olympic and World Championship medallist Neeraj Chopra, who begins his javelin throw qualification on July 30, with the final scheduled for August 1 at Scotstoun Stadium. A strong showing from Chopra, who won javelin gold at Gold Coast 2018 but missed Birmingham 2022 through injury, would be one of the standout results of the Games for India. Decathlete Tejaswin Shankar is also in action across the closing days of the athletics programme, along with triple jumpers Praveen Chithravel and Selva Prabhu.
Boxing is another area to watch closely. Six Indian boxers, Sakshi Choudhary, Jaismine Lamboria, Arundhati Choudhary, Sachin Siwach, Ankush Panghal, and Narender Berwal, have already reached the semifinals of their respective weight categories, guaranteeing India at least six more medals. Their semifinal and final bouts in the closing days will determine how many of those turn into gold.
Track cycling also has events left on the calendar, including the men’s team sprint, while weightlifting concludes its programme on July 30. Lawn bowls, where India has a history of medalling in recent editions, continues through the sectional and knockout rounds into the final days of competition. India’s remaining athletics entries in sprints, hurdles, and field events also have qualification and final rounds to come.
Based on the medal tally through Day 6, India sits inside the top 8 of the overall standings with 15 medals, and the closing days of boxing and athletics finals are expected to be decisive in determining the country’s final position. Historically, India has tended to add a significant share of its medals in the closing stages of past editions, particularly through boxing and combat sports finals.
