World Athletics Championships 2023 | India squad, schedule and timings
A strong 28-member team is set to participate in the World Athletics Championships, in Budapest, from August 19 to 27. What is interesting is that Neeraj Chopra is the only medal holder from the young squad, and had won a silver medal last year in Eugene.
But things are looking a little brighter this time around, as some of the other Indian athletes are among the world leaders this year, which includes the likes of Avinash Sable, Praveen Chithravel, Jeswin Aldrin, and Murali Sreeshankar. So there is every possibility that India might squeeze in another medal or two at the World Championships.
Meanwhile, SportsCafe brings to you the full squad, schedule, and timings of the Indian athletes.
