India's Greco-Romans wrestlers eager to step out of freestyle shadow


JAKARTA (Reuters) - Greco-Roman wrestler Harpreet Singh was clearly bored as he sat on his own in the banquet hall of a plush Delhi hotel last weekend as India's media got a chance to talk to their Asian Games-bound grapplers last weekend.

At the other end of the room, where the lights shone brighter and the air was thick with excitement, India's top freestyle wrestlers tirelessly obliged crowds of reporters, only occasionally breaking off to catch their breath.
