CWG 2018 : Indian Weightlifters to watch out for

18th Commonwealth Games - Day 1: Weightlifting

5) Vandna Gupta

20th Commonwealth Games - Day 4: Weightlifting
Vandna
Gupta at 2014 Commonwealth Games

Vandna Gupta will be competing in the -63 kg category at the Games. She participated in 2014 Commonwealth Games but was just short of reaching the podium. She finished at 4th position. She hails from Lucknow. Vandana Gupta will be up to clear all the dark clouds which obstructed her to finish at the podium in the 2014 Games. She's one of the top contenders for a medal in the Games.

6) Punam Yadav

20th Commonwealth Games - Day 4: Weightlifting
Punam Yadav won the Bronze Medal at the 2014 Commonwealth Games

Punam Yadav will be competing in the -69 kg category at the Games. She won the bronze medal in the -63 kg category at the 2014 Commonwealth Games. She hails from Varanasi who also won a gold medal at Senior Commonwealth Championships in 2015. We would definitely love to see her changing the colour of medal from bronze to gold at the Games and make the tricolour flag flutter high.
