It is time to move on and think beyond, says Indian wrestler Sushil Kumar when enquired about his view on competitor Narsingh Yadavs return to action. "Well, I don't want to indulge in what happened in the past. My focus is on the Tokyo Olympics and winning a medal for my nation is what matters to me," Sushil told IANS on Tuesday. "I want to welcome Narsingh (to the camp) and wish him all the very best for future events. He is a good wrestler and I hope he does well for India."

Narsingh, who is back on the mat after a four-year doping ban, is all set to join the national camp in Sonepat, starting September 1. With the 2010 Commonwealth gold medallist's return, much talked about Sushil-Narsingh face-off is on the cards again as the duo will look to cement their spot in the Olympic qualifiers next year via trials.
