First came a stunning run from former NR holder Gurindervir Singh, who clocked 10.17s, but as he posed for the pictures, the second heat of 100m semi-final commenced with current NR holder Animesh Kujur, gearing up for history. The 22-year-old from Chhatisgarh saw his training partner breaking the NR and thought, ‘If you can do it, I can do it too.’ He blazed to the finish line in 10.15s breaking the NR again and breaching the qualification mark for Commonwealth Games 2026. “You know they are trying to kill each other on the track but are best buddies off track,” quipped their coach James Hillier who was gushing at his two wards creating history. “These two lads are in very good shape but honestly, I was not thinking about the records, not in the semis.” “I just told them to run the race like you want to run in the final,” he told The Indian Express on the sidelines.

He’s got a bit of a sore thumb. He’s recovering nicely, but he won’t be ready for this match. If we manage to get through to the playoffs, hopefully he’ll be alright,” Hussey said. Having been ruled out at the start of the season for two weeks due to a calf injury, Dhoni then decided to sit out of the matches after regaining fitness because he did’t want to take a spot of Kartik …
