India’s Siddhanth Thingalaya finished a disappointing sixth in his 60m hurdles heat in the IAAF World Indoor Championships here. Thingalaya clocked 7.93seconds in heat number three and failed to qualify for the semifinals.

The 27-year-old Thingalaya, who trains in United States, has a personal best of 7.70s which he achieved in Seattle last year. He had run 7.83s in a meet in the US last month.

His arrival was delayed due to visa related issues and he landed here on March 1 only. He is expected to take part in the 110m hurdles event in the Federation Cup Senior National Athletics Championship beginning in Patiala on Monday.
