Ritu Malik now has a task at hand as she is up against 2017 U-23 world champion and this year's World Cup gold medal winner Ayana Gempei from Japan.

'It was so near and yet so far. Having reached the final, I expected to win gold but I will have to be satisfied with a silver medal. I am happy to have bettered my bronze medal effort, achieved five years ago at the same venue,' Bajrang Punia said

India ended the championship with six medals, including three silvers and as many bronze medals. Greco Roman grapplers delivered three medals while the women's won two bronze

Asian Games gold medallist Vinesh Phogat was on Sunday ruled out of the prestigious championship after suffering an elbow injury during practice

With Sajan Bhanwal down, Opiev went to work, scoring six additional points from a pair of back-arches, followed by a feet over back exposure to take the 7-0 lead

'I feel very proud that India was winning so many medals in wrestling and other sports. After seeing the medals that we have won in Asian Games 2018, I felt like India is growing beyond cricket. Even in athletics we are winning medals. So I think it's great that times are changing and I hope we improve further and do better,' said Manpreet Singh

Vinesh Phogat suffered an intense knee injury two years back, which paved her way out of the Rio games, 2016 by cutting her campaign short. What followed later is no less than an inspiring story, which can be a huge hit if made into a flick.
