India’s Eldhose Paul & Abdulla Aboobacker made history by securing a 1-2 finish in the men’s triple jump event at the Commonwealth Games. 
Paul, who breached the 17-metre mark for the first time in his career, couldn’t have chosen a better moment to do so as his jump of 17.03 fetched him Gold. Even in the World Championships Final, Paul’s best jump was 16.79 metres.
Paul’s statemate Abdulla Aboobacker landed the silver with a close second-place finish. Aboobacker recorded a jump of 17.02 metres.
It very well could have been a 1-2-3 for India but Praveen Chithravel missed out on the bronze by just 0.03 metres. He finished fourth behind Bermuda’s Perinchief. 
Nevertheless, it was a big moment for the Indian track and field contingent, who last won a medal in the triple jump back in 2014, when Arpinder Singh had bagged the bronze medal in Glasgow.

An emotional and a historic contest awaits, where all of India will be cheering for the their stars come Tuesday.

From mastering needlework to lifting kilos of weights on a barbell...20-year-old Achinta Sheuli has come a long way.
His story of becoming India's 3rd Commonwealth Games Gold medallist at Birmingham 2022 is that of pain, perseverance and determination. 
The once underweight & malnourished Achinta lifted a Games record of 313kgs to win the Gold in the 73kg category in England.
Having lost his father at the very young age of 11, the star who lives in a modest house in Deulpur, roughly an hour from Kolkata, worked as a tailor to help his mother.
Taking inspiration from a bodybuilding show on television, the Sheuli brothers, Alok and Achinta decided to step into the world of lifters. 
Achinta dedicated his Gold to his family's sacrifice, his brother's pain; the pain of stepping away from his dream for the sake of Achinta's dream...Despite the financial implications, his mother, Purnima Sheuli never undermined her son's dreams of bringing an international medal home. 
And thus, juggling between tailoring and weightlifting, Sheuli embarked on his journey of becoming the best in the business.
Determined to drive his family out of the shackles of poverty, Achinta's skills first came to the fore in 2015, when he won the silver medal at Commonwealth Youth Championship. Since then, the youngster hasn't relaxed. He has bagged medals at various events like Junior Asian Championship, Junior World Championship & the Commonwealth Championships.
Achinta & Jeremy Lalrinnungu, apparently have an interesting connect. Both the now-CWG gold medallists are roommates since their training days. 
Dead set on winning accolades for their nation, the two friends, who 'would forget about home when together', would persevere alongside each other to shine the brightest in the days to come.
