Tokyo Olympics 2020: India’s Annu Rani failed to qualify for the finals of women’s javelin throw.© Twitter
India’s Annu Rani finished 14th in the women’s Javelin Throw Qualification Group A and failed to make it to the finals. She registered throws of 50.35m, 53.19m and 54.04m which wasn’t enough to put her in the top 12. After the highs on Monday when the Indian women’s hockey team beat Australia to make its first semifinal appearance at the Tokyo Olympics, the men’s hockey team will look to go one step further and book a place in the final when they meet Belgium in the semis on Tuesday. India defeated Great Britain 3-1 in the quarterfinal on Sunday to set-up a clash with world number one Belgium, who outed Spain 3-1 in their quarterfinal clash. This will be India’s first semifinal appearance since 1972 as they aim to add to their 11 Olympic medals, the last of which came in 1980. In addition to the hockey team, Sonam Malik will put India’s challenge forward in wrestling and Tajinderpal Singh Toor will exhibit his skills in men’s shot put.
