We couldn't help but share this. These boys were under immense pressure. They could have folded. Instead, they responded with character.

One title. #IndiaU18 #IndianHockey #HockeyIndia #U18AsiaCup #AsiaCup2026 #Hockey #TeamIndia #IndianSports

🚨 Neeraj sat alone after his 5th throw, quietly reflecting on what went wrong today. 💔 The same stadium but without crowd and a drizzle just like today, had given India its first-ever Olympic gold in athletics at Tokyo 2020. But today, on the same runway, Neeraj failed to defend his world title. Sachin Yadav finished 4th, which means no medal for India in javelin this time. #WorldAthleticsChampionships #Athletics #Javelin #IndianAthletics #WCHTokyo25

🚨 China has done it again. A hugely unfair decision against India! 😲 India’s Manikanta Hoblidhar was disqualified from the men’s 60m heats for an alleged false start at the Asian Indoor Athletics Championships 2026. However, video footage appears to show Saudi Arabia’s Ali Khalid Mas (Lane 5) committing a clearer false start, raising serious questions over the decision. Manikanta, one of India’s most consistent sprinters and the holder of the country’s second-fastest all-time 100m time, was competing in his first-ever international 60m race. So far, there is no official confirmation on whether the Athletics Federation of India (AFI) has filed a protest. 📢 Stay tuned for further updates. #IndianAthletics #Athletics Athletics Federation of India SAI Media

🗣️ "I have always tried to never give any excuses. The real reason is that I wasn’t able to train much due to back pain," said Neeraj Chopra after failing to defend his title in the Men’s Javelin Final at the #WorldAthleticsChampionships. Neeraj finished 8th in the final with a best attempt of 84.03m. This season, Neeraj did breach 90m, but he failed to maintain the consistency in his throws that he has been known for in past years. 🥇Trinidad and Tobago’s Keshorn Walcott took the gold with a season-best throw of 88.16m, 🥈Anderson Peters claimed silver with 87.38m, and USA’s Curtis Thompson took 🥉bronze with 86.67m. India’s Sachin Yadav finished 4⃣th, registering his lifetime best of 86.27m, missing the podium by just 40cm. #IndianAthletics #Athletics #Neerajchopra #WCHTokyo25 #Javelinfinal #Tokyowithnnis Athletics Federation of India SAI Media

🗣️ “Some elements of the media just try to find the negative in everything because they want clicks,” said India’s men’s 4x100m relay coach while responding to criticism over the baton drops and disqualification at the World Relays during a presser. India’s men’s 4x100m relay team featured at the World Relays for the first time ever but was later disqualified under T.R. 24.7. This marks the third time in the last two years that the Indian men’s 4x100m team has been disqualified for the same violation — baton exchange outside the takeover zone. #Athletics #IndianAthletics Athletics Federation of India #AthleticsIndia SAI Media

🚨 India’s teen sprint star Abhinaya Rajarajan struggles to find sponsors!
