HANGZHOU: The chatty and lively sides of Neeraj Chopra and Kishore Jena suggested nothing had happened. But an hour or so ago on October 4, the men's javelin throw final at the Asian Games began with a storm.
Olympic and world champion Chopra successfully defended his 2018 gold with his season best throw of 88.88m, while Jena achieved his personal best twice to win a silver medal with an 87.54m mark and book himself a Paris Olympics ticket. But the medal wins were preceded by a couple of extremely controversial moments.
