U20 World Wrestling Championships: Antim Panghal, who recently became the first Indian woman wrestler to win back-to-back gold medals at the U20 World Wrestling Championships, is keen to give a good account at the senior level at the upcoming Asian Games in Hangzhou, China.

Up against Ukraine's Mariia Yefremova in the 53kg final of the U20 championships in Amman, Jordan last week, Antim, 19, knew she was in for a tough outing, despite dropping just two points on the way to the final.
