Bhopal, Feb 3 (Ians) Madhya Pradesh’s Dev Kumar Meena rewrote the pole vault national youth record during his gold medal effort at the ongoing Khelo India Youth Games 2022 Madhya Pradesh (KIYG2022MP), here on Friday.
Dev Kumar recorded a jump of 4.91m to break Rakesh Gond’s previous national mark of 4.90m. However, that effort of his could not stop Maharashtra from holding on to the top spot in the medal tally at the end of day five on account of having more silvers, as both they and the hosts Madhya Pradesh tallied 14 golds at the end of the fifth day.
In the track events, Doondapati Jayara of Odisha and Tamanna of Haryana emerged as the fastest boy and girl in the competition in the 100m dash.
Besides Dev Kumar, the stars of the day certainly were Jayara, whose time of 10.53 secs would have been a national youth record but for wind assistance and Tamanna,...

Lucknow, Jan 17 (Ians) Noted wrestler Sumit Kumar underwent a complicated surgery at the Apex Trauma Centre of Sanjay Gandhi Postgraduate Institute of Medical Sciences (Sgpgims), for severe ligament injury.
Sumit Kumar is a state level 60-kg category wrestling champion.
He sustained the Anterior Cruciate Ligament (Acl) injury in the left knee during a tournament in October 2022.
Often described as a sportsperson’s torment, the condition involves injury to either of the two cruciate ligaments in the knee area.
Dr Pulak Sharma, orthopaedic surgeon at Sgpgi Apex Trauma Centre, said, “Injury to the Acl is commonly seen in fast paced and high impact activities, particularly sports. Therefore, sports-persons form the biggest chunk of its sufferers. However, among sportspersons too, those in contact sports like wrestling are the bigger sufferers as they face a higher degree of fatalities.”
After trying different doctors in Varanasi and other districts over the past two months,...

Indore, Feb 20 (Ians) Swashbuckling batsman-wicketkeeper Ishan Kishan hammered 173 off just 94 balls, comprising 19 sixes and 11 boundaries, to propel Jharkhand to a humongous 324-run win -- the third highest margin by runs in the world -- over Madhya Pradesh in a Group B match of the Vijay Hazare Trophy here on Saturday.

New Delhi, Jan 27 (Ians) Right-handed batsman Vishnu Solanki, who hit a helicopter shot a la Ms Dhoni off the last ball in the Syed Mushtaq Ali T20 quarter-final against Haryana, to take Baroda to win and into the semi-finals, said that he had practiced the stroke in the quarantine period just for the 'death' overs for domestic limited-overs tournaments.
The No.3 batsman hammered a 46-ball 71 to make easy work of Haryana's 148-run total.
"Actually, I practiced a lot and worked very hard for the helicopter shot for the T20 format. Whenever I used to get free time after practice, I would practice this shot in the hope that it would help me in Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy," Solanki told Ians on Wednesday.
Baroda were 131/2 after 19 overs, and needed 17 runs off the last over from medium pacer Sumit Kumar. Solanki got just two singles off the first two balls.
