The Asian Games 2023 has already turned out to be a pretty historic one for India, with the nation having surpassed its previous-best medal tally of 70. A big addition to this tally has been from the track and field athletes and Neeraj Chopra, one of the star performers and reigning Olympic and world champion, is set to take the field in the javelin throw final today. The ace javelin thrower has performed pretty consistently for several years now and fans would not be wrong to expect a gold from him this time around as well. For the uninitiated, Chopra is also the reigning Asian Games champion, having won the gold medal way back in the Asian Games 2018 in Jakarta-Palembang. Asian Games 2023 Medal Tally Latest Updated.

The 25-year-old did not have a great time in the Diamond League final where his best throw was 83.80m. Chopra would look to put behind him that disappointment and focus ahead as he takes center stage as one of the gold-medal favourites in this event. Pakistan's Arshad Nadeem, who had breached the 90m mark in last year's Commonwealth Games, will not be in action in this event as he has been ruled out with a knee injury. India’s Asian Games 2023 Medals Tally Updated.
