Reigning Asian Games light flyweight champion Amit Panghal on Saturday failed to secure a berth in the Indian men`s boxing team for this year`s Asian Games in Hangzhou, China. The 2019 World Championship silver medallist will, however, not be able to defend his crown as he once again finished behind Deepak Bhoria in the assessment.
World Championship bronze medallist boxers Deepak (51kg) and Nishant Dev (71kg) were named in the squad, alongside Parveen Hooda (57kg), the 2022 Worlds bronze medallist, Commonwealth Games bronze medallist Jaismine Lamboria (60kg), Arundhati Chaudhary and Preeti Pawar in the women`s team for the continental event to be held from September 23 to October 8. Nikhat Zareen (51kg) and Lovlina Borgohain (75kg) are also part of the squad.
