Gyaneshwari wins silver after record-breaking duel with Nigerian at CWG

Glasgow: Indian weightlifter Gyaneshwari Yadav continued India's medal rush, clinching a silver as records were broken left, right and centre in a riveting women's 53kg competition at the Commonwealth Games here on Monday.

The 23-year-old from Bhondiya village in Chhattisgarh totalled 199kg (88kg snatch + 111kg clean and jerk) but Nigeria's Onome Omolola Didih stole the show with a stunning 206kg (93kg + 113kg), rewriting both the Commonwealth and Commonwealth Games records to take the gold.
