Commonwealth Kabaddi Day 4: India’s women reach the semi-finals

India’s women made a fast start against Nigeria and never let go. The hosts forced an early all-out and led 24-6 at half-time, and they finished with a 38-10 win at the Veer Savarkar Sports Complex in Ahmedabad. It was their fourth win in a row and it booked a place in the semi-finals.

Anu Sen led the attack with 11 points, Sakshi added five and Priya three. Nigeria’s top scorer, according to the organisers, got six points.

The men’s game was just as one-sided. Sachin Tanwar made an early impact with a five-point raid, and the Nigerian defence could not contain India’s raiders in the first half. India led 25-7 at the break and went on to win 50-23.

Tanwar finished with 12 points and Aditya Shinde with 11. Ita Edem scored eight for Nigeria. The Surjeet Singh-led side now top Group A after four wins in a row.

After Commonwealth Kabaddi Day 4: what is next for India

India’s men face Tanzania on Tuesday 27 October, live on Star Sports and JioHotstar from 8 pm IST. Entry is free with online booking, the organisers say. Read how both Indian teams did the day before in our Day 3 report, and the rest of Monday’s scores in our Day 4 round-up.

The Sports Desk view: The number to watch on Commonwealth Kabaddi Day 4 is the half-time score. India led 24-6 and 25-7 in the two games, so both matches were decided before the second half. The women are through, and the men will want the same start against Tanzania on Tuesday. PurePlay India will follow that match too.
