Day seven of the Commonwealth Games turned out to be a great one for the Indian contingent as medals were assured and teams raced ahead to knockouts. To start with, Hima Das qualified for the 200m semifinals, and PV Sindhu defeated Maldives' Fathimath Nabaaha Abdul Razzaq to enter the pre-quarterfinals of the women's singles event. Kidambi Srikanth won his game vs Daniel Wanagaliya in the men's single round of 32 badminton event. 

Indian men's hockey team stormed into the semifinals of the competition after beating Wales 4-1 after vice-captain Harmanpreet scored a hat-trick of goals. But with all said and done, the day belonged to the Indian boxers.

Following Panghals footsteps, Jasmine beat New Zealand's Troy Garton by a 4-1 split verdict in the women's lightweight (60kg) quarter-final. Both Amit and Jasmine progressed to the semifinals of their respective events. 

If that wasn't enough, Sagar Ahlawat Sagar Ahlawat joined Panghal and Jasmine in the semifinals as the 22-year-old defeated Seychelles' Keddy Evans Agnes 5-0 in the men's +92kg competition. As far as the medal standing is concerned, India is currently placed seventh on the points table with 18 medals in the kitty.
