Which pair won the bronze medal for India in the squash mixed team event at the Asian Games?
- A.Manush Shah and Diya Chitale
- B.Joshna Chinappa and Velavan Senthilkumar
- C.Tilottama Sen and Ashi Chouksey
- D.Prachi Choudhary and Tajinderpal Singh
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is Joshna Chinappa and Velavan Senthilkumar. The pair won bronze in the squash mixed team event, and for Joshna the medal extended a remarkable run of consistency, since she has played at consecutive Asian Games and taken a medal at every edition since 2010. Option A is wrong because Manush Shah and Diya Chitale won their bronze in mixed doubles table tennis, a different sport on the same day. Option C names two of the three shooters who won silver in the women's 50m Rifle 3 Positions team event, so it is wrong here. Option D pairs a sprinter with a thrower, neither of whom took part in squash. Keep each sport with its own athletes when revising a medal day.
