[[{“value”:”

Star Indian weightlifter Mirabai Chanu is set to miss the rescheduled Asian Championships in Gandhinagar next month due to a shoulder injury. The Tokyo Olympics silver medallist and former world champion had sustained the injury during the National Championships in February.

“Mirabai picked up a shoulder niggle during the Nationals. It is an important year with the Commonwealth Games and Asian Games scheduled back-to-back, and she cannot afford to take any risks,” a source close to the developments told PTI. Komal Kohar is likely to take Chanu’s place in the Indian team.
