The U23 World Wrestling Championships is set to get underway from Monday, October 21, and will run till Sunday, October 27. The event will take place in Tirana, Albania.
India will participate in three categories - Men's freestyle, Women's freestyle, and Men's Greco-Roman. The Indian team will take part with a 30-member squad at the U23 World Wrestling Championships this year. In their last appearance, India bagged nine medals, including a solitary gold.
This time, the Indian squad comprises some big and experienced names such as Priya Malik and Sujeet, who will also lead India's campaign. Having won only two gold medals at the U23 World Wrestling Championships, India will be keen to do better.
