The Commonwealth Games Federation (CGF) recently removed a number of prominent sports from the program for the 2026 edition of the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow. To the surprise of many, cricket, hockey, wrestling, squash, badminton, table tennis and para-table tennis were some of the sports that were dropped from the upcoming edition in the Scottish city. The 2022 Commonwealth Games in Birmingham featured 19 sports, but that number will be significantly reduced to 10 for the 2026 edition in Glasgow.
According to the CGF, the decision to reduce the number of sports was taken to make the Games 'more budget-friendly'.
“The Games will include ten sports that strike a balance between ensuring the event has a multi-sport feel and the need to manage financial and operational risks,” a statement from the CGF said.
One can only wonder how many medals India would have won had these sporting events not been part of the 2022 Commonwealth Games in England. Let's take a look:
How many medals did India win in the 2022 Commonwealth Games?
India had an excellent campaign at the 2022 Commonwealth Games in Birmingham, where they finished in fourth place. India won 22 gold medals, 16 silver medals and 23 bronze medals, taking the total number of medals to 61. India had sent a total of 210 athletes (106 men and 104 women) to participate in the CWG 2022 across 16 sporting events.
What if the current sports are removed from the CWG 2022?
If the above sporting events had also been removed from the 2022 Commonwealth Games, India would have ended up winning just 31 medals in Birmingham.
A total of 30 of India's medals at the 2022 CWG came from sports excluded from the 2026 programme. The majority of those medals come from wrestling (12 medals, gold: 6, silver: 1, bronze: 5). Seven medals come from table tennis (Gold: 4, Silver: 1, Bronze: 2) and six medals from badminton (Gold: 3, Silver: 1, Bronze: 2). India had also won two medals in hockey (one silver and one bronze), two bronze medals in squash and one silver medal in cricket.
Athletics, boxing, weightlifting and boxing are among the sports included for the Glasgow Games 2026. India accounted for 28 medals in these events in 2022, including 10 medals in weightlifting. The Indian athletes won eight medals in athletics, while boxers won a total of seven medals and there were three medals in judo.
This shows that while there is still hope that the Indian contingent will win medals at the CWG 2026 in Glasgow, the absence of sports like wrestling, badminton and cricket, where there are several Indian medal contenders, is definitely a significant blow.
