Aman, Sujeet Lead India’s Medal Hunt At Asian Wrestling Championships In Bishkek
Asian Wrestling Championships: Olympic bronze medallist Aman Sehrawat and U23 world champion will spearhead the Indian challenge at the Asian Wrestling Championships in Bishkek, a city that hosted the competition in 2018 and 2024. The event, which will follow a two-day format for the first time, will begin on Monday with Greco-Roman, followed by women's wrestling and then freestyle.
Close to 350 wrestlers are competing for the 30 gold medals on offer. A total of 30 Indian wrestlers – 10 each for women’s, men’s freestyle and Greco-Roman categories - will compete at the continental championships.
Aman, who won his Olympic medal in the 57kg category, a division which also saw him become the Asian champion in 2023, will compete in the men’s non-Olympic 61kg. The 22-year-old Indian wrestler has won a couple of Grand Prix medals in the category. Earlier this year, he clinched the silver at the Zagreb Open.
