Athletics: Sable wins silver, breaks national record and sets personal best.

India’s Avinash Sable on Friday bagged a silver medal for the country in the men’s 3000m steeplechase at the Commonwealth Games in Birmingham. Sable settled for the silver after he clocked 8:11.20 to come second – this is his personal best and also a national record.

Notably, this is India’s fourth medal in athletics after Tejaswin Shankar’s bronze in high jump, Murali Sreeshankar’s silver in long jump and Priyanka Goswami’s silver in 10,000m race walk.
