India para-athletes Simran Sharma and Ashok failed to seal their spot at the podium and saw their Paris Paralympics campaign conclude on a heartbreaking note. Simran stormed into the women's 100m T12 final without breaking a sweat. But she was ousted by her opponents and finished last of the four finalists in the event with a timing of 12.31s. Cuba's Omara Durand Elias, the world record-holder, struck gold with a timing of 11.81s. Ukraine's Oksana Boturchuk finished behind Elias with a timing of 12.17s. Germany's Katrin Mueller-Rottgardt settled for the bronze medal after clocking 12.26s.
