Episode Description

This week, hosts Amit Kamath and Mihir Vasavda turn their attention to the World Athletics Championships, scheduled for September 13–21. Neeraj Chopra will lead a 12-member Indian team and, notably, return to the site where he transformed from just another athlete into a javelin legend. They look back on the Pandemic Games, the challenges Neeraj overcame before winning gold, and how that moment sparked a javelin revolution in India—with four throwers qualifying for the Worlds, the most from any country.
