India’s record in international sport is often told through single moments — a gold, a final, a debut. The more useful version is the sequence: what changed between 1934 and 2026, which sports carried the medal tally, and when the institutional support actually arrived.

This is the index to everything we publish on it. Where an event is still in progress, we say so and hold the result open rather than publishing a provisional total as if it were final.

The timelines

How to read this cluster

The Commonwealth Games timeline is the longest arc — nearly a century, from Rashid Anwar’s 1934 bronze through Glasgow 2026 and on to Ahmedabad 2030. Women’s cricket in India is the sharpest institutional story on the site: the change before and after the BCCI merger is visible in the record, not just in the rhetoric.

What we are watching

Glasgow 2026 results as they are confirmed, the run-up to Ahmedabad 2030, and the WPL’s effect on the domestic women’s game.
