Incheon: Indian rower Dushiant Dushyant squandered a bright chance to win a gold as he settled for a bronze in men's light single sculls event on the fifth day of competitions at the 17th Asian Games here today.

Dushyant was in a good lead over his opponents midway into the 2000m-distance contest but lost steam afterwards to settle for a third place with a timing of 7:26.57 at Chungju Tangeum Lake Rowing Center.
