Indian wrestler Sakshi Malik also had to settle for the silver medal after she lost her women's freestyle 58 kg final to Nigeria's Aminat Adeniyi in the 2014 Commonwealth Games at the SECC Hall here Wednesday.

Aminat completely dominated Sakshi and took a lead of 10-0 in two minutes 24 seconds when the match had to be stopped on grounds of technical superiority.

The bronze medals went to New Zealand's Tayla Ford and Canada's Braxton Rei Stone.

Sakshi's medal was the third silver for India in the day from wrestling.
