was feeling a little pain after I started training for the Asian Games

"There was swelling and I consulted two doctors, who advised me to rest
for 10-12 days, which means I had no option but to pull out. It is a
weird feeling because I have never withdrawn from a tournament due to
injury in my career," added the 31-year-old, who won a gold and a silver
at the 2010 and 2014 Commonwealth Games respectively.
