Amoj Jacob: We won’t get that much challenge from anyone else at 2023 Asian Games

The Hindu  

The performance at the World Championships is a major confidence booster, but replicating the timing at the Asian Games will be difficult given that the field will be less competitive, feels Indian men’s 4x400m relay team member Amoj Jacob. Jacob, Muhammed Anas Yahiya, Muhammed Ajmal Variyathodi and Rajesh Ramesh shattered the Asian record, clocking 2:59.05 seconds to take the Indian men’s relay team to its first ever World Championship final last week. Rajesh Ramesh, Muhammed Ajmal Variyathodi, Amoj Jacob, and Muhammed Anas Yahiya after the men’s 4x400m relay heats during the World Athletics Championships at the National Athletics Centre in Budapest. Meanwhile, Anas, a member of the gold-winning 4x400m mixed relay team at the 2018 Jakarta Asian Games, said that a recent tweak in the baton exchange technique has helped them become quicker.
