Neeraj Chopra becomes first Indian ever to win silver at World C'ships

Neeraj Chopra created history after becoming the first Indian athlete to win a silver at the World athletics championships with his best effort of 88.13m to etch his name in the record books. He, however, failed in his endeavour to become the first javelin thrower after Norwegian track and field great Andreas Thorkildsen to hold both the Olympics and World Championships titles at the same time.
