World Athletics Relays Guangzhou 2025 Day 2 LIVE Updates: India Men바카라™s 4x400m Squad Finishes 7th
India바카라™s men바카라™s 4x400m relay team bowed out of the World Relays with a disappointing seventh-place finish in their heat, clocking 3:04.49. With only the top three teams advancing, this result ends their hopes of qualifying for the 2025 World Championships at World Relays.
It바카라™s a tough blow for the squad. The campaign ends in heartbreak, with India unable to find their rhythm when it mattered most.
Can India Still Qualify For 2025 World Athletics Championships?
Yes, India can also qualify based on their position in the top performance lists during the qualification window, which runs from February 25, 2024, to August 24, 2025. Only two teams from the top lists from each event will make the cut.
That's A Wrap
That바카라™s a wrap for now, but we바카라™ll be back with another live blog soon. Until then, it바카라™s time to reflect on some questionable decisions that may have contributed to the disappointment. Why was Santosh, the most experienced leg-runner, dropped?
And how could Vishal TK, who delivered a stunning split yesterday, be excluded?
But there바카라™s still hope, a small glimmer, but hope nonetheless.
