Pakistani wrestlers miss Asian Wrestling Championships after landing at the wrong airport. The Pakistani wrestlers, including Commonwealth Games Bronze medalist Inayat Ullah, Mohammad Bilal, and Nouman Zaka, along with coach Ghulam Fareed, missed the Asian Wrestling Championships in Astana, Kazakhstan. They landed at the wrong airport, Almaty International Airport, and were deported to Dubai after being denied a visa-on-arrival, which is only issued at Astana. The Pakistan Wrestling Federation faced yet another dark day as all four members missed their scheduled matches, despite efforts to help them reach their destination from Dubai.
