Hima Das ran her way to silver in the women’s 400 metres race in the ongoing 18th Asian Games 2018. The Dhing-Express came second to Salwa Naser and registered a time of 50.79. Hima gave Salwa a run for her money and showed that she has it in her to carry the expectation of a billion on her shoulders.

In the qualification round on day 7, Hima Das broke a 14-year-old national record when she clocked 51.00s as she qualified for the 400m final during the ongoing Asian Games 2018 in Jakarta on Saturday.

Hima ran with Bahrain’s Salwa Naser, who is favourite to win this event and won the Heat 1 with a new Games record. Hima Das shot to fame when she stunned everyone by becoming the U20 World Champion.
Meanwhile, there was more good news from the track and fields as Muhammed Anas Yahiya won the Silver No. 9 for India as he finished second. Anas clocked a time of 45.69 while Arokia Rajiv finished 4th with a timing of 45.84.
