India also lost 0-4 to China in their women's hockey semifinal and they will now fight for bronze. Experienced Saurav Ghosal secured a silver in the men's singles squash final event before wrestler Antim won in the women's freestyle 53kg match. In the final event for the Indian contingent on Day 12, Satwiksairaj Rankireddy and Chirag Shetty registered a comfortable win in the men's doubles quarter-final to assure at least a bronze medal.
