Asian Games, Neeraj Chopra’s Javelin Throw Live Streaming: Here you can find details of men’s javelin throw event online and on TV
Ace India javelin thrower Neeraj Chopra will be in action on October 4 as the nation will expect another yellow metal from the World Champion and Olympic gold medalist.
Chopra would seek to defend his gold medal and end the season on a high when he takes the field for the much-anticipated men’s javelin throw event here on Wednesday.
It could just be a cakewalk for India’s greatest athlete as his nearest competitor and world silver medallist Arshad Nadeem has pulled out of the Games due to a chronic knee injury which has troubled him for some time now.
However, Chopra has a domination record against Nadeem as he has won every competition in which he and the Pakistan javelin thrower participated, nine in all, including the 2018 Asian Games, where the Pakistani was third when the Indian stood on top of the podium.
For Chopra, the dream of becoming the world champion has been fulfilled this season even as he battled a persistent groin strain, which he sustained during training in late May.
Just a few days back, he said the injury has not gone away completely but can be manageable.
He said he has been trying to divert his mind from the groin strain and focus on his game, which he had done during the Budapest World Championships and during the Diamond League finals in Eugene, USA, last month where he lost his title.
The back-to-back second-place finishes at the Zurich Diamond League and in the DL grand finale in Eugene could be some sort of concern, but Chopra would start as firm favourite at the ‘Big Lotus’ stadium on Wednesday
