While Ali Asad defeated New Zealand’s Suraj Singh within 55 seconds to win a bronze medal in the Men’s Freestyle 57kg category.

Asad got his hands on a bronze medal reaching the final score of 11-0.

Pakistan has won a total of 7 medals in the Commonwealth Games so far with, 3 bronze, 3 silver, and 1 gold.
