The Indian men’s and women’s 4x400m relay teams will push for a place in the 2024 Paris Olympics final when they take to the track at the Stade de France on Friday.

Both teams secured qualification for the Paris Games during the World Athletics Relays event in May and are well placed to qualify for the final, especially after their performances in the 2022 Asian Games in Hangzhou last year.
