Only 1 is Correct
Statement 1 is CORRECT. As per World Athletics (WA) rules, the minimum length of the high jump runway is 15 metres.
Statement 2 is INCORRECT. The crossbar in high jump has a diameter (circular cross-section) of 25–30 mm (not 15–20 cm, which would be far too thick). Hence only Statement 1 is correct.
