PANCHKULA: Defending champions Maharashtra pocketed three gold medals on Saturday to dethrone hosts Haryana from the top spot in the Khelo India Youth Games. For the first time since the Games started on June 4, the hosts drew a blank in their gold medal collection on Day 8 of the competitions here.
However, with two days of competitions left, Haryana (36 gold, 36 silver, 39 bronze) will bank on their boxing contingent for a gold rush even as archers Tamanna and Ridhi have ensured a 1-2 finish for the home team when they take on each other in a riveting summit clash of the girls recurve event at the Panjab University campus in Chandigarh on Sunday.
