Indian Cyclists Face Early Exits in Multiple Events at Commonwealth GamesPreviousNext

At the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow, Indian cyclists faced setbacks in multiple events. Harshveer Singh Sekhon was eliminated from the men's 40km points race and earlier failed to qualify in individual pursuit and elimination races. Dinesh Kumar also exited the points race after finishing near the bottom in his heat. In men's sprint qualifying, Rojit Singh Yanglem was the top Indian finisher at 22nd place. Despite these results, coaches and family remain hopeful for improved performances in upcoming events, including Ronaldo Singh Laitonjam's participation in the 1000m Time Trial final.
