COVENTRY: For Bajrang Punia, anything less than a gold at the 2022 CWG would have been a setback. The competition was hardly at a level that he faces at ranking tournaments organised by the United World Wrestling. So it didn't come as a surprise when Bajrang literally waltzed through to the 65kg gold at the Coventry Stadium on Friday.
The Rashidovs, Otoguros, Niyazbekovs, Aliyevs and the Muszukajevs weren't there and Bajrang, in reality, used half his abilities to get the top position.
