Rome: India’s Greco-Roman wrestler Neeraj kept himself in contention of a bronze medal in the 63kg but four of his compatriots lost on the opening day of the UWW Ranking Series event here today. Neeraj lost his quarterfinal to Sultan Aseetuly but since the Kazakshtan wrestler reached the final, he got a repechage round. Making the most of the chance, Neeraj defeated Aleksei Tadykin to book a slot in the bronze playoff. PTI
