  "summary": "Thailand's men's volleyball team won their first match of the Asian Games against Indonesia with a score of 3-2. The match was closely contested, with both teams trading sets, before Thailand sealed the deciding fifth set 25-23. Thai attacker Napadej Pinijdee led the team with 34 points. Thailand's next match is against Iran on September 28 at 14:00.\n\nIn other news, Singapore's Shanti Pereira defended her 200m Asian Games crown, becoming the first woman to win the event twice. She clocked 22.78s, matching her season's best, and won ahead of China's Chen Yujie and India's Harita Bhadra.\n\nThere were also concerns about the schedule for the badminton event, with some players and teams, including China's Tan Ning, complaining about the tight turnaround times between matches. India's players, including PV Sindhu and Unnati Hooda, played multiple matches in a short period, while Singapore's Loh Kean Yew benefited from a fresher schedule.",
