Medal Confirmed for India
Men's Javelin Throw: Round six has started. Anxious moments for Chopra and India. Chopra is still no.1. Three athletes are done with their sixth throw. Top four left. A 75.72m for Weber. This means a medal is assured for India's Neeraj Chopra. Is still in first place.
Men's Javelin Throw: Czech Republic's Jakub Vadlejch moves to second position with a throw of 86.67m in his fifth attempt. That is a season best score for him. Vesely moves to third and Weber to fourth. Weber registers 85.15m in his fifth attempt. Still in fourth place.

Men's Javelin Throw: Germany's Johannes Vetter, favorite for the gold medal, has been eliminated. Finishes 9th. Had the top seven throws for 2021. What a shocker!

Javelin Throw: Neeraj Chopra's men's final begins. Chopra had qualified for the final with a throw of 86.65m in his very first attempt in the qualification round. No Indian in independent India has ever won a track & field medal. Germany's Johannes Vetter remains a favourite to win gold.
Wrestling: Match begins. Bajrang in blue. No strapping on his right knee today. Passivity charge for Daulet. He has 30 seconds to score a point or Bajrang gets a point. And Bajrang goes 1-0 up. Daulet has Bajrang in a headlock. He's looking to turn the Indian. But Bajrang defends. Bajrang goes for the single-leg takedown. Very proactive now. Send Daulet out of bounds. Another point. Leads 2-0 at the end of the first period.
