Sreeshankar continues injury comeback with Portugal win
Hindustan Times Ranchi
|July 22, 2025
India’s top long jumper Murali Sreeshankar continued his optimistic return from a long injury layoff, finishing on top at the Meeting Maia Cidade do Desporto in Maia, Portugal on Saturday with a best jump of 7.75m.
The event, a World Athletics Continental Tour bronze level meet, was Sreeshankar's first international competition since his silver medal finish at the 2023 Hangzhou Asian Games. It also marked his second outing in as many weeks since coming back from a career-threatening knee injury that put him under the knife and a challenging rehab trail.
Returning to competition after a lengthy gap, Sreeshankar did well to jump 8.05m at the Indian Open in Pune last Saturday (July 12). “Long story short... I am back,” Sreeshankar posted on Instagram after the Pune meet. “This comeback journey taught me something beyond sports. Here's to the next chapter with my new knee.”
