The Indian men’s 4x400m relay team faced disappointment as Rajesh Ramesh withdrew due to cramps during the World Athletics Relays, disrupting their chances for Paris Olympics qualification. Despite a strong start by Muhammed Anas Yahiya, Ramesh’s mid-race exit dashed hopes for a top-two finish in their heat. With another opportunity in the next round, India aims to secure a Paris ticket. However, both the women’s and mixed 4x400m relay teams also fell short in their qualifying attempts, awaiting another shot in the upcoming round.
