Live: India ends Asian Games campaign with record 107 medals

The Indian women's kabaddi team has beaten Chinese Taipei in the final to add another gold to its kitty, taking the country's overall tally to a historic 100 at the Hangzhou Asian Games.

India is only the fourth country in the history of the Asian Games to win a total of 100 or more medals in a single Asiad. The other three countries to achieve this distinction are China, Japan, and South Korea.

There is a high probability that India will end up 4^th in the medals tally in the Hangzhou Asian Games. If it does, it would be the country’s highest position in the continental Games since the 1962 Asian Games at Jakarta, when it was 3^rd. India’s best performance was when it hosted the first Asian Games in New Delhi in 1951, when it came 2^nd.

Reigning world champion Aditi Swami began the penultimate day at the continental showpiece by assuring the country of a record ninth medal in archery at these Games when she prevailed over Indonesia's Ratih Zilizati Fadhly in a one-sided bronze play-off. The 17-year-old Indian who bagged the World Championship title in Berlin two months ago was not at her best and dropped four points, but that did not matter much as she won 146-140.

Later Jyothi, who had already secured a gold in mixed pair and women's team events, made it three in a row when she rallied to defeat her formidable South Korean opponent So Chaewon 149-145.
