Men's Javelin throw final controversy

The farcical refereeing call, distance-recording equipment malfunctioning! Two unwanted incidents in the same event! Men's Javelin throw is marred with controversies. Such ludicrous incident is rarely seen in top sporting events, but certainly shows Asian Games 2023 in a poor light. Not to forget, it hinders the athletes from focussing on their performances with so much at stake

Oct 04, 2023, 5:16 pm IST

CONTROVERSIAL CALL BY REFEREE AGAIN!

Mykhel

Kishore Jena records a fair throw, which landed below 80m! However the lines official red flagged the throw, which took everyone by surprise, including Kishore and Neeraj Chopra. Neeraj soon approached the referee questioning the decision with Kishore! And the decision was soon reversed with video evidence confirming Kishore never crossed the eligible line for his throw!

Timings to be revealed soon as the second Indian in the fray Chanda Kumari finished outside the medal position!

Oct 04, 2023, 5:00 pm IST

Men's Javelin Throw: Kishore Kumar Jena throws 81.26m!

Kishore Kumar Jena's opening attempt is an 81.26m! However, it's still hard to digest how Neeraj Chopra was denied his first throw. There's certainly going to be a talking point of the day if the World Champion doesn't finish at the top by the end of the event!

Oct 04, 2023, 4:55 pm IST

Neeraj Chopra: 82.38m in first attempt!

Mykhel

Neeraj Chopra starts with an 82.38m in his re-attempt! That's shorter than his last attempt. It's learnt that due to a technical problem with the distance-measuring device, his first attempt was not counted! An effort wasted for the World Champion!
