🚨 Young mixed relay team stuns seniors, breaks national record and enters World Relays qualification quota! India’s 4x100m Mixed Relay Team B, featuring Lalu Bhoi, Unnathi Bolanda, Jayaram and Harita Bhadra, stunned the senior team by breaking the national record with a brilliant 42.30s. They outperformed the senior lineup of Gurindervir Singh, Sudeshna, Tamilarasu and Tamanna in a sensational race. Both teams Timings have now entered the top 24 under the World Relays 2026 qualification quota, with Team B ranked 19th. What makes it even more remarkable is that this team had never run together before. They were formed just a day prior and practised together for the first time before delivering this performance. #IndianAthletics #Athletics @afiindia

🚨 A very sad day for India’s men’s 4x100m relay team at the Open Relays! The team, which was expected to push for World Relays qualification, was disqualified due to a takeover violation. During the race, third-leg runner Manikanta suffered a hamstring issue, leading to a failed baton exchange with fourth-leg runner Animesh Kujur. The disqualification was under T.R. 24.7 (World Athletics Technical Rules – Relays), which governs baton exchange/takeover violations. The team was unaware of the disqualification and was warming up for the final when the decision came through. 📌 As per multiple sources, Maldives lodged a protest, though an official present indicated that the jury had already reviewed the footage and was set to make a decision even before the protest. India was ranked 25th (38.75s) in the World Relays standings and needed 38.73s or faster to break into the top 24 — a mark that was well within reach. 💔 A heartbreaking end to what could have been a qualification push. #IndianAthletics #Athletics @afiindia

🚨 Clarification on Tejaswin Shankar’s decathlon national record performance Two of Tejaswin Shankar’s performances — the 100m (+4.7 m/s) and 110m hurdles (+2.5 m/s) — were wind-aided. As per the World Athletics wind modification system, approximately 30 points are deducted due to excessive wind assistance. This brings his adjusted total to around 7917 points. Both performances will not count as personal bests, although the points are still considered (with adjustment). ⚠️ Note: This is a rough calculation, and there is no official confirmation yet on whether this mark will be ratified as a national record by the federation. We will try to get official confirmation from AFI on this. #Athletics #IndianAthletics @afiindia

🚨 National Record Alert: Tejaswin breaks the decathlon national record! Tejaswin Shankar finished 1st at the David Noble Relays, shattering India’s decathlon national record with 7947 points. He registered lifetime bests in four events: 100m: 10.59s, Long Jump: 7.66m, Shot Put: 13.98m and Pole Vault: 4.35m (huge PB) He also clocked a lifetime best of 14.09s in the 110m hurdles, although it was wind-assisted. He narrowly missed the 8000-point mark by just 53 points. This was his outdoor season opener — having already won gold in the heptathlon at the Asian Indoor Championships earlier this year. He improves his own national record from 7826 points to 7947 points — what a way to start the season! ✅ He has also breached the qualification standards for both the Asian Games and Commonwealth Games 2026. #IndianAthletics #Athletics @afiindia @Media_SAI @TejaswinShankar

🚨 Tejaswin storms Day 2 — 8000 points within reach! Tejaswin Shankar started Day 2 of the decathlon strongly, clocking 14.09s in the 110m hurdles (wind-assisted) and throwing 38.08m in the discus. In the pole vault, he registered a huge lifetime best of 4.35m, clearing 4.25m and 4.35m both on his first attempts. His previous PB in pole vault was 4.20m, making this a significant improvement. He finished 2nd in the event, earning 716 points and taking his tally to 6759 points after 8 events. With just two events remaining — javelin throw and 1500m — a performance close to his PBs could see him cross the 8000-point mark. 🤞 Fingers crossed — let’s go TJ! #IndianAthletics #Athletics @afiindia
