Paris Olympics: Sakshi Malik Believes Indian Wrestlers Can Win '3-4 Medals'
In an interaction with IANS on Thursday, Sakshi pinned hopes on Vinesh Phogat (50kg), Antim Panghal (53 kilograms), Anshu Malik (57kg), Nisha (68kg) and lone male wrestler Aman Sehrawat (57 kg) to return home with medals. Apart from them, Reetika Hooda in the 76kg category will also make her Olympics debut in Paris.
With the inclusion of seedings in wrestling for the first time, Antim and Aman have been seeded fourth and sixth in their respective weight categories. At the same time, the other Indians remain unseeded in the quadrennial mega event. "This time, I feel, we can bag 3-4 medals in wrestling because Vinesh, Antim, Anshu and my junior Nisha are there. Aman is a young and promising wrestler. So, we can hope for 3-4 medals," said Sakshi.
