Nagoya City Inae Sports Centre: Greco-Roman wrestler Sunil Kumar boarded the flight to Japan for the Aichi-Nagoya Asian Games, aiming for a gold medal in his second appearance in the Continental Games. Though he managed to win only a bronze in the men's 87kg category on Wednesday, he was proud of his effort, as he managed that after his return to action following knee surgery.
And the first person he called after winning the medal in Nagoya was his mother, as it was her blessings and support that helped him go through the rehabilitation.
