Indian long jumper Murali Sreeshankar is set to compete at the Simbine Classic on April 28 in South Africa.
Sreeshankar opened his 2026 season at the Indian Open Athletics Series 1 with a best jump of 8.15m, signalling strong early form.
So far this year, only two Indian athletes have crossed the 8m mark in men’s long jump — Lokesh Sathyanathan with 8.21m and Sreeshankar himself with 8.15m.
As he heads into the Simbine Classic, Sreeshankar will look to build on this momentum against an international field.
