Indian Boxing Contingent Creates History

India's tally of seven medals is the most by a country in a single edition of the CWG, despite boxing being part of the competition since the inaugural edition in 1930. They broke a record set by Canada 40 years ago, which was equalled by England later.

Most Gold Medals In One edition Of CWG In Boxing

Meanwhile, India not only beat their best display in a single edition but also nearly tripled it. Before this edition, Glasgow's best display was of three gold medals each in the 2010 (New Delhi), 2018 (Gold Coast) and 2022 (Birmingham) editions.

Meanwhile, India's overall tally of 10 medals this time around is also the joint-most in a single edition in boxing alongside Canada and England, who also managed the same number during the 1986 edition.

India's own previous best display in the sport in a single edition had come in 2018 at Gold Coast, when they managed to win nine medals, which included three gold, silver, and bronze medals each.
