Roshibina Devi at Asian Games 2026<\/b><\/h2>\n

Roshibina Devi<\/b> won the silver medal in the women’s <\/span>60kg sanda<\/b> event after losing 0-2 to China’s <\/span>Zhang Xiaoyu<\/b> in the final. Zhang won both rounds by identical 5-0 margins.<\/span><\/p>\n

The medal is Roshibina’s <\/span>third consecutive Asian Games medal<\/b>. She had won bronze at the <\/span>2018 Jakarta Asian Games<\/b> and silver at the <\/span>2022 Hangzhou Asian Games<\/b>, before adding another silver in Nagoya. She has therefore become the <\/span>first Indian woman to win wushu medals at three successive Asian Games<\/b>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Roshibina reached the final after defeating <\/span>Macao’s Chu Man Sin 5-0<\/b> in the quarterfinal and <\/span>Indonesia’s Thania Kusumaningtyas 2-0<\/b> in the semifinal. Earlier in the tournament, she also defeated Vietnam’s <\/span>Nguyen Thi Thu Thuy<\/b>, the 2023 world champion.<\/span><\/p>\n

Her place in India’s Asian Games squad had itself been uncertain. She had been recovering from a knee injury and initially missed selection before being brought into the squad as a replacement for <\/span>Divyanshi Choudhary<\/b>, who suffered a high-grade ACL injury.<\/span><\/p>\n

India’s wushu campaign received a major boost from Roshibina Devi’s silver medal.<\/span><\/p>\n

Roshibina has now reached the Asian Games podium in <\/span>three consecutive editions<\/b>, making her one of India’s most consistent wushu performers. Her medal sequence is:<\/span><\/p>\n
