Commonwealth Games Day 3 Schedule: India will take on Pakistan in the women's cricket. (Twitter/BCCI Women)The Indian contingent will be in action on day 3 at the Birmingham Commonwealth Games (CWG) 2022 on Sunday, July 31, 2022, with a plethora of top stars set to feature in as competitions. India currently ranks fourth in the all-time CWG medal table. Going ahead in the 2022 Birmingham Games, they will be aiming to at least match their 66-medal haul from the previous Gold Coast edition, given sports like Archery and Shooting, traditionally strong disciplines for India, have not found a place in these Games. India had finished third in Gold Coast, with as many as 26 golds, 20 silver, and 20 bronze medals in their kitty.
