India's men's squash team takes Asian Games bronze after semifinal loss

India's men's squash team settled for bronze at the Aichi-Nagoya Asian Games after a semifinal defeat to Malaysia, adding to the country's closing-day medal rush.
The semifinal exit to Malaysia ended the men's team's gold bid, but the bronze kept squash among India's medal contributors at the Games.
The medal came on a day when cricket and hockey golds headlined India's charge to 85 medals — the nation's second-highest Asian Games tally.
India's squash programme has been a steady multi-sport contributor in recent editions, and the bronze maintains that run into the LA 2028 cycle.
