Patiala, Aug 28:
Vijender Singh (75kg) made a return to the Indian boxing team along with Thokchom Nanao Singh (49kg) as the selectors picked the team for the World Championships after a two-day trial here today.
There were hardly any surprises in the team, which will compete under the International Boxing Association’s banner due to India’s provisional suspension.
Also making a comeback in the squad was Nanao Singh, a former youth world champion and Asian Championships silver medallist. Nanao’s cause was helped by the fact that rising star L Devendro Singh was forced out of the trials due to a cut above the eye.(PTI)
