Indian fans will move to Thursday, August 8 with heavy hearts. If Vinesh Phogat getting stripped of her medal due to an extra 100 grams was not enough, Mirabai Chanu finishing fourth by a margin of 1 kg made it a massively disappointing day for Team India at the Paris Olympics.

However, there is something to cheer for on Thursday. Neeraj Chopra will be in action with the responsibility to bring smiles on the faces of a billion people who have been left hopeless since the Phogat disqualification episode.
The defending champion at the Olympics as well as the reigning world champion, Neeraj Chopra will go into the men's javelin throw final with the aim to bring India's first gold medal in Paris.
India have so far got only three bronze from the ongoing Summer Games with all of them coming from shooting. Neeraj wil have the responsibility to take India up in the medal tally.
The other big battle to watch out for is the India vs Spain bronze medal match in men's hockey. Apart from the two big events, women golfers, two 57kg wrestlers and a few other athletes will also be in action.
Here are all the Indians that will be in action today, August 8. Find the full detailed schedule of events in which they will participate with IST timings right here.
