Glaglow CWG 2026 | Sarvesh Kushare wins silver in high jump

For every attempt by India’s Sarvesh Kushare in the men’s high jump final of the Commonwealth Games at Scotstoun Stadium here on Monday, the modest gathering of spectators responded with warm applause and cheers. But when the Indian stepped up for his third and final attempt at 2.28m in expectations of a gold medal — after Jamaica’s Romaine Beckford had also failed at the height in his final attempt — sepulchral silence descended over the stadium. It was evident that the crowd wanted the 31-year-old Indian to win.
