(Athletics news) Tokyo Paralympics 2021 Live Update: The Men’s Club Throw F51 final event ended on a disappointing note for Amit Kumar and Dharambir as they failed to increase India’s medal tally at the Tokyo Paralympics. Amit Kumar started off the proceedings with his season best 25.41 m in his first attempt and went on to improve that tally by registering 27.77 m in his second. However, he couldn't do better as his third attempt resulted in 24.86 m while his fourth was a foul. He concluded with a 26.68 m in his final throw, well below his expectations.

Dharambir was the third in order and started off really badly. He committed four back to back foul throws in the final and only had one attempt remaining.
