'I have no problem with no one breaking my records'

(L-R) Former India hockey captain PR Sreejesh, retired Jamaican sprinter Usain Bolt, badminton star PV Sindhu and sprinter Animesh Kujur in New Delhi on Tuesday.

The world got a rare glimpse of Usain Bolt, who owned track and field like few have in history, turned up for an athletics event as a spectator at the recent Tokyo Worlds for the first time since he retired in 2017.

A few weeks later, India got a rare glimpse of that star, who landed in Mumbai last week and flew out after playing some football in the rain on Wednesday.

In his interview, the Jamaican eight-time Olympic champion and 100m-200m world record holder talks about the rise of other nations in sprinting, women dominating it more than men, and what India can do to build on having an Olympic champion of their own.

The Tokyo Worlds were the first major athletics event you watched in person since retirement. Did you miss it?
