Former Sri Lanka fast bowler Rumesh Tharanga Pathirage produced a shocking throw to beat Neeraj Chopra and Arshad Nadeem for the 2026 CWG men's javelin gold medal.

India's Asmita Dey advanced to the women's 48kg judo semifinal after defeating Eva Ewing of Scotland by ippon. Dey wrapped up the contest in quick time with a dominant performance to move within one win of a Commonwealth Games medal.

Neeraj Chopra will lead India’s medal hopes in the men’s javelin final at the 2026 Commonwealth Games in Glasgow, joined by compatriots Rohit Yadav and Yash Vir Singh.

Yashvir Singh had one thought in his mind before stepping up for his final throw at Scotstoun Stadium. The bronze medal mark was just beyond 82 metres, and he reminded himself that he had already crossed that distance before.

India's Neeraj Chopra will be aiming to win his second CWG medal when he competes in javelin throw final of Commonwealth Games 2026 on Friday.
