The day of Tuesday in the Asian Games 2023 is going to be quite special for Indian Kabaddi fans. This is because both the men's and women's teams of India will be in action. The women's team had already played their first match, where they had to settle for a draw. Meanwhile, the men's team will play their first match. Under the leadership of Pawan Sehrawat, Team India is fully prepared for the competition. The team is set to play their first match against Bangladesh, and they will aim to start with a victory.

The clash between India and Bangladesh will take place on October 3rd at 6 AM. Bangladesh's team suffered a heavy defeat to Japan in their first match with a score of 52-17, which is why they will be eager to make amends. India's head coach, Shrinivas Reddy, knows the strengths and weaknesses of every Indian player well. In this scenario, Team India could face a tough challenge.

The focus will be on these players in the raiding department. Apart from Pawan Sehrawat, players like Navin Kumar, Arjun Deshwal, Aslam Inamdar, and Sachin Tanwar are part of the raiding department. Now, it remains to be seen which players get the chance in the starting seven. Navin Kumar and Arjun Deshwal may join Captain Pawan Sehrawat. Although Aslam Inamdar had a fantastic performance in the Asian Kabaddi Championship, he also has a good chance of getting an opportunity. Since the match is against Bangladesh, young player Akash Shinde may also be tried out. The most attention will be on Captain Pawan Sehrawat.
