Commonwealth Games 2026: Major Sports Missing

Commonwealth Games 2026: Major Sports Missing

The Commonwealth Games 2026 are happening in Glasgow, Scotland, with 74 nations participating.

However, this year there are only 10 sports, which is the lowest since 1994.

Some popular sports like badminton, hockey, and table tennis are missing, which makes it harder for countries like India to win medals.

India won a lot of medals in these sports in the past.

Some athletes and coaches are disappointed, but others see it as a chance for teams to focus on other important tournaments.

India is also set to host the Games in 2030, which is exciting for the future.
