Disaster for Punam Yadav

Disaster! The challenge is turned down. Punam loses out as she drops the bar just before the buzzer. None of her three C&J lifts were valid. So even though she was in silver medal position after Snatch, she will finish without a score.

Full explainer on Punam's frustrating day coming up soon on our website.

India challenge Punam's C&J disqualification

Disaster for Punam Yadav in the C&J round! All her three lifts are adjudged to be invalid lifts. 

Weightlifting: Punam fails to lift in 1st C&J attempt

Athletics: Anees finishes eighth overall with 7.68m and qualifies for the finals. Both Sree and Anees have thus qualified. Manpreet Kaur's qualification round is going on now. She also looks likely to go through.

Weightlifting: The C&J round is underway. Punam still has a firm hold on the second spot. She fails to lift 116kg in her first attempt though.

Swimming: Srihari breaks national record

Srihari Nataraj finishes 3rd in his heat (200m backstroke) with a timing of 2.00.84. In the process he smashed his own NR of 2.01.70 clocked in 2019 Jr World Champs.

He is placed 9th overall and will be the first reserve for the final. What a set of performances by Srihari throughout CWG!

Punam in silver medal spot

Anees is currently topping his group. We look set to have 2 long jumpers in the final! Anees follows up his first round effort of 7.49 meters with a much better 7.68 meters. Top 12 qualify for the finals.

Weightlifting: Punam Yadav lifts 98kgs in Snatch

Punam Yadav registers 98kgs in Snatch! That places her above every other lifter except for the Canadian. So, silver it is, then?

Lawn Bowls: India bow out in Women's Pairs in Round 1. They lose 9-15 to NZ. Stay tuned for a historic gold medal match in the Fours section later today.

Long Jump: Sreeshankar qualifies for final

Sreeshankar's 8.05m jump makes him an assured qualifier in Long Jump. 

Lawn Bowls: India's women's pair have fallen behind. They trail 9-14 after 15 Ends. 

Weightlifting: Punam lifts 95kgs in Snatch. Nobody has lifted more yet, but five more lifters are yet to go who will try to lift 96 or more.
