India's Paris Olympics 2024 Schedule: Day 6 Brings Hope and Anticipation
Day 6 of the Paris Olympics 2024 holds immense promise for India, offering a chance to redeem the disappointment of previous days. The Indian men's hockey team faces Germany in a crucial semi-final match, while celebrated wrestler Vinesh Phogat takes to the mat. The spotlight, however, will be on Neeraj Chopra, India's golden boy in javelin throw.
Chopra, who made history as India's first Olympic gold medalist in athletics, has continued his dominance since his Tokyo triumph. He has emerged victorious in the World Championship, Asian Games, and Diamond League finals. On Tuesday, he will begin his Olympic campaign in Qualification Group B at 15:20 IST.
An hour earlier, Asian Games silver medalist Kishore Kumar Jena will aim to qualify for the final in Men's Javelin Throw Qualification Group A at 13:50 IST. The day will commence with the men's table tennis team of Harmeet Desai, Manav Thakkar, and Achanta Sharath Kamal launching their campaign in the Quarterfinals of the Men's Team Competition.
In athletics, Kiran Pahal will compete in the Women's 400m Repechage at 2.50 pm IST. Vinesh Phogat, India's wrestling star, will face Japan's Yui Susaki in the Women's 50kg Round of 16 at 2.30 pm IST.
