India have breached their medal tally from Glasgow four years back with
action unfolding on the final day of the Commonwealth Games in Gold
Coast.
In Glasgow in 2014, India had won 64 medals – 15 gold, 30 silver and 19 bronze.
This time at the 2018 CWG in Goldcoast,Queensland,Australia, India went past the mark in terms of gold medals with 26. India’s tally of 66 medals can be broken down into 26 gold, 20 silver and 20 bronze.
However, this won’t beat India’s second best haul of 69 medals in Manchester in 2002.
India had won the maximum medals in New Delhi in 2010 when a massive 600-plus strong members competed under the tricolour to bag 101 medals.
India finish third in the medal tally – behind Australia and England with the host country winning 195 medals and England taking home 130 medals. The top 10 in the medals tally is rounded off with Canada (4th; 82 medals), New Zealand (5th; 44 medals), South Africa (6th; 37 medals), Wales (7th; 36 medals), Scotland (8th; 44 medals), Nigeria (9th; 24 medals) and Cyprus (10th; 14 medals).
