India’s Asian Games 2026 schedule across multiple dates highlights a busy stretch of competition, with shooting and mixed martial arts (MMA) featuring early, and other disciplines such as kabaddi, hockey, wushu, squash, athletics, and wrestling appearing on later days. Several outlets frame the schedule by day, indicating where India’s medal efforts are concentrated.
NDTV reports that Day 2 (September 21) focuses on shooting and MMA, including attention on athletes such as Suchika Tariyal. It also points to later dates where shooting continues alongside kabaddi (September 25) and where cricket, wushu, and shooting reappear in the medal quest (September 22). For September 24, NDTV describes athletics starting while shooting, hockey, and kabaddi continue.
Times of India adds broader context for September 23, describing another packed day with India participating in hockey and wushu, among other sports. NDTV also previews September 27 with squash as a focal point, and notes that India has already secured a large medal count by the time of later October 3 coverage, while wrestling events are set to begin on an indicated day. Outlets differ mainly in emphasis—some foreground specific sports or named athletes, while others provide a wider event lineup for a given date.
