Deepa Malik won her second medal as she clinched a bronze in the women's F51/52/53s discus throw event at the Asian Para Games in Jakarta on Friday.

The Rio Paralympics medallist produced her best effort in her fourth attempt, a 9.67-metre throw, to claim the third spot. Elnaz Darabian of Iran took home the gold and set a new Asian record with her best throw of 10.71m. Fatema Nedham of Bahrain won silver with 9.87m.

The other Indian in the fray, Ekta Bhyan, who had won gold in the women's club throw event, finished last in a four-woman field, with a best attempt of 6.52m.

In the F51/52/53 category, athletes have full power and movements in their arms, but no power in their abdominal muscles and typically no sitting balance. They compete in seated positions.

Deepa had earlier won a bronze in women's F 53/54 javelin throw event.
