Which of the following describes the Indian men's kabaddi gold at these Asian Games?
- A.It was India's first ever kabaddi gold
- B.The team retained the gold it already held
- C.The team was upgraded from silver
- D.The gold was shared with another country
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is that the team retained the gold it already held. The result was announced as the men's team retaining the Asian Games gold, and the Prime Minister greeted the players as champions once again, which tells us that India was the defending champion in the men's event and kept the title in this edition. Option A is wrong because a retained medal cannot be a first win. Option C is wrong because there was no upgrade from a silver; the team won the final. Option D is wrong because no sharing of the gold medal was reported. This distinction between winning a title and defending it is exactly the kind of detail question setters test, so note the word retained.
