Live streaming of the Xiamen Diamond League 2023 will be available on Jio Cinema, while it will be telecasted live on Sports18 channel.

Sable is currently tied at 10th place in the Diamond League 2023 men’s 3000m steeplechase rankings with seven points, with only the top six qualifying for the finals.

As men’s 3000m steeplechase is not a part of the Brussels leg, this will be the last chance for Sable to qualify for the finals. India’s Neeraj Chopra and Murali Sreeshankar have already made the cut for the men’s javelin throw and long jump finals, respectively.

On the other hand, Chithravel will take part in his second Diamond League event of the season. The 22-year-old national record holder, finished sixth on his Diamond League debut at Monaco in July. Similar to Chithravel, Aboobaker also will be competing in his second Diamond League event, with his debut at the Florence Diamond League in June, where he finished sixth with a best jump of 16.37m.
