The boxers, who have delivered one of their most dominant performances, now need just one more win to secure the top spot on the podium.

The biggest upset of the day came from Arundhati Choudhary, who defeated defending champion Rosie Eccles of Wales 4-0 in the women's 70kg semi-finals.

World champion Jaismine Lamboria also impressed, outclassing her Lesotho rival through Referee Stops Contest (RSC) in the women's 57kg category.

Other Indian boxers who recorded convincing wins to enter the finals include Preeti Pawar (54kg), Sakshi Chaudhary (51kg), and Priya Ghanghas (60kg).

In the men's competition, Ankush Panghal (80kg), Jadumani Singh (55kg), and heavyweight Narender (90+kg) comfortably cleared their semi-final hurdles.

India's flawless showing has underlined its growing dominance in boxing at the Games.

The finals are set to take place, with the first match featuring Preet Pawar vs Scarlett Delgado in the women's 54kg category at 3:30 PM IST.

Other notable matches include Jaismine Lamboria vs Michaela Walsh in the women's 57kg category and Lovlina Borgohain vs Emma-Sue Greentree in the women's 75kg category.
