With competition spread across 36 sports and running from September 19 through October 4, India’s daily Asian Games schedule shifts constantly as different disciplines reach their qualification and medal rounds.
## How the Schedule Is Structured
Shooting’s events run from September 20 through October 1 across rifle, pistol and shotgun disciplines, while other sports like wrestling and boxing are concentrated later in the Games, closer to the closing ceremony. Cricket, badminton, wushu, kabaddi and table tennis have all featured prominently in the opening week.
## Sports Already in Action
Shooting, cricket, MMA, badminton, wushu, boxing, kabaddi and table tennis have all seen Indian athletes compete in the opening days. Our day-by-day results tracker covers exactly what’s happened in each so far.
## Sports Still to Come
Wrestling’s competition window falls later in the Games, from September 30 through October 3, meaning India’s reduced but talented 15-member squad has not yet taken to the mat. Several other disciplines follow a similar later-stage schedule.
## Why Schedules Shift
Weather disruptions, including the threat posed by Typhoon Dujuan during the Games, and standard qualification-to-final progression mean daily schedules can change close to competition, making it worth checking updated listings rather than relying on the original event calendar alone.
