After the success stories of Bajrang Punia and Sakshi Malik, India on Friday claimed a third gold medal in wrestling at the 2022 Commonwealth Games. This time, it was Deepak Punia, who beat Pakistan's Muhammad Inam 3-0 in the men's 86kg category (freestyle). Two-time champion Inam never actually threatened Deepak's defence. It was a strong performance by Deepak to hand India a medal.
