New Delhi, Jul 1 (PTI) Long jumper Jeswin Aldrin, who was left out of the Indian team for the World Championships next month, will have another chance to compete in the showpiece as he was called for a trial by the Athletics Federation of India on July 4.

Aldrin was not named in the 22-member Indian team as his performance in the last three events conducted by the AFI had dipped. But on Friday, the AFI said Aldrin will be given a chance.
