Day 8 recap:
Weightlifter Lovepreet Singh’s Commonwealth Games record-breaking silver medal headlined an eventful day for India, while discus thrower Seema Kaliramna bagged a bronze medal and Olympic champion Neeraj Chopra, along with two compatriots, advanced to the men’s javelin throw final on Thursday.
National record holders Praveen Chithravel and Selva Prabhu also progressed in triple jump, while decathlete Tejaswin Shankar ended the opening day in second place after five events. India, however, endured disappointment in athletics with Asian Games champion Tajinderpal Singh Toor finishing fifth in the men’s shot put final, extending the country’s wait for a maiden Commonwealth Games medal in the event. National record holders Animesh Kujur (200m) and Vishal TK (400m) also failed to reach their respective finals.
Teenage weightlifter Martina Devi narrowly missed a medal on her Games debut, finishing fifth in the women’s +86kg event, while the men’s lawn bowls pair maintained its unbeaten run.
