Shot putter Samardeep Singh Gill, triple jumper Praveen Chithravel and hurdlers P. Yashas and T. Santhosh Kumar earned Commonwealth Games qualification on the concluding day of the Federation athletics meet at the Birsa Munda Stadium (Morabadi), here on Monday.<\/p>\n

At his lucky venue where he had landed gold at the National Open and South Asian meets last year, Samardeep crossed 20m for the first time as he upset his idol Tajinderpal Toor with a throw of 20.46m in his third attempt to win gold. Samardeep went past 20m in his last three attempts while Toor managed 20m-plus throws in his first (20.07m) and last (20.06m) efforts.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s all about the mindset. Once I crossed 20m, I felt a lot better,\u201d said Samardeep.<\/p>\n

National record-holder Chithravel overcame a foul in his first attempt to record 17.08m in his third effort and ensure victory over Commonwealth Games medallist Abdulla Aboobacker (16.63m).<\/p>\n

\u201cI want to go step by step and achieve good results abroad,\u201d said Chithravel.<\/p>\n
