Atanu starts the third set with another 10. Hasn't he come to the party here. Now, Tushar... oh no! It's a 7. He has been the weaklink so far. Can Dhiraj salvage it for India? Yes he can with a 10. But Tushar's 7 gives Korea a huge chance to close this. A 10 to start for Kim, 10 for Lee and Oh's last shot goes to 8. India hand in there..... only just.

Atanu: 9. Tushar: 9. Dhiraj: 10. India have 55 on the board. Korea need just 28 to win. The first one is a 9. The second is a 9. Oh needs a 10 to win it for them and he gets it. Korea have won GOLD! India will have to settle with silver

India to go first in the second set. Atanu nails a 10. Tushar's shot is a low 8. It could be way too costly against a team like Korea. Dhiraj finishes with 9. India have 27 on the board. They need Korea to falter here. 9 to start. That's good. Korea have missed 10 for the first time here. But normalcy was restored in the next shot with 10. Butt he last shot is also a 9. So India still have a chance. A 10 for Atanu again! He has been superb. Tushar needs to up his game here. He does with a 10. And Dhiraj nails a 10. Perfect 30 for India to end. Korea now need 30 to win. They can't as the first shot is 9. The next is 10. Oh finishes it with 10. It's 57 all so this set is tied. 1 point each for India and Korea but the latter lead 3-1.

Korea's Wooseok Lee, Jinhyek OH, and Je Deok Kim start the gold-medal match with a perfect 30. Atanu Das starts replies with a 10. Tushar Shelke shoots 9, the first sub-10 shot of the final. Dhiraj hits the bullseye. What a start this is. Kore 30-29 India.

The second series of first set begins. Korea get a 10 again. They haven't missed the top score so far. 10 again. 5 perfect shots. Make that six in a row. a perfect 60 for the world champions. India can't win this set even if they get a 30. And they finish with 27. It's Korea 2-0 India in the men's recurve archery final.

India beat Pakistan 61-14 to enter Men's Kabaddi final, assured of at least silver. This has been a total domination. India got Pakistan all out as many as six times in the semi-final. The Pawan Sehrawat-led side has been untroubled in this Asian Games so far but they might face their toughest test in the final which is likely to be against defending champions Iran, provided they beat Chinese Taipei in the second semis.

India lose 0-2 to Thailand in women's sepaktakraw women's regu semifinal, settle for bronze. They lose 13-21 in Set 2.

Fourth set begins. a 10! Somebody have switched the Bangladesh team on after the first two sets. 10 and 10 more. Another perfect 30 to start. What a turnaround this has been.

Atanu starts for India, takes his time and shoots a 10. Archery at its very best. Tushar next, just wide... 9. Dhiraj shoots a 10. So India still hang in there. It's 30-29 in Bangladesh's favour.

Second series starts. 8, that would hurt a bit for Bangladesh. 10, good stuff. 9 to end. Bangladesh finish with 57. A chance for India. They need 28 to win.

Atanu gets 9. 10 from Tushar. Dhiraj needs a 9 to square it and win this. He gets it. The set is tied but India win 5-3. They are in the final.

A perfect 30 for Bangladesh! Wow, they won't die easily and that's exactly what makes it a semi-final. 9 for Atanu, 10 for Tushar and 9 for Dhiraj. Not bad but Bangladesh have a two-point lead.

9 for Bangladesh 10 and 9. This is by far their best set in this semi-final. India three 10s to make it square or else Bangladesh will be on the board. And Atanu gets 9 so Bangladesh have won this set. It's India 4-2 Bangladesh.

India are trailing 3-7 to Thailand and really need to stage a comeback now!

Pakistan have finally managed to gather a few points but India have such a huge lead that it is next to impossible for them to win. It's about damage control for them now. India 36-8 Pakistan.

9, 10 and 7 for Bangladesh to start the second set. The last shot could cost them again. India's turn. Atanu gets 9, Tushar with a 10 and Dhiraj ends it with 10. India have the advantage of three points. It's 29-26 in their favour.

Bangladesh get 9, 9 and 10. Much better from them. India under pressure for first time. Atanu brushes it aside with a 10. They need just 16 now to win this. And then get 18. India lead 4-0 now. They have one step in the finals.

The Indian serve hits the net and Thailand seal Set 1, claiming it 21-10.

India's Atanu Das, Dhiraj Bommadevara and Tushar Shelke have won the first set without breaking a sweat. Bangladesh will need to up their game if they want to compete against the Indian archers.

Pakistan are all out again! India on a rampage now. They have taken a 20-5 lead. So after the first 4 points that Pakistan took, India have taken 20 points compared to only 1 from Pakistan.
