Sujeet’s defeat also means that if Bajrang Punia, who has been suspended for refusing to provide sample for a dope test, had any hopes to make it to the Paris, they have been dashed

Sujeet Kalkal and Jaideep Ahlawat resisted their respective rivals well at the World Qualifiers on Sunday but could not add more quotas to India’s kitty for the Paris Olympics, where the country will have only one male wrestler in Aman Sehrawat presenting his challenge.


In his crucial 65kg bronze medal contest, Sujeet matched USA’s Zain Allen Retherford in terms of skills but conceded a takedown on counter attack to lose 2-2 on criteria. Retherford maintained the scoreline to walk out a winner. 


Sujeet’s defeat also means that if Bajrang Punia, who has been suspended for refusing to provide sample for a dope test, had any hopes to make it to the Paris, they have been dashed.
