However, there is a question mark over the 33-year-old'a participation at IOC event as the event overlaps with the Asian Championship in Vietnam, which is scheduled from November 2 to 12.

If Mary Kom is selected for the tournament after trials, her participation at the IOC Athletes' Forum would become uncertain. (ANI)
