Mixed air rifle 10 m poor start.

 

10m air pistol going on, then Manu Bhaker. Can say only after a few hours.

Cheema has made his own shooting keema

He shot 2 x 7s. That's the reason for his precipitous drops.

You bet it is. Our expectations are reality and our reality is expectations.

India in this match as well all out. Good going

[randomGuy]

Sarabjot slipping away. Looks like both Indians will be out.

[LordPrabhzy]

i hope funds from shooting are diverted to other sports- after 2008 no medals in a discipline that we had the most medals in after Hockey.

Indians start like an express train then ends like a hand rickshaw which balraj sahni will be proud of. 

[neel roy]

Sarbjeet had same point as 8th but couldnt qualify as one less bulls eye. Sad but reality 

[Sandz]

9th! Just missed out

[neel roy]

5th set he hit a 8. Even a 9 would have led to his qualification 

[deepdynamo]

Sarabjot Singh finished 9th....so close to Final....

 

same points to 8th position but shot one 10 lesser than him in total....

 

agonizing close...

[Sandz]

Now they can enjoy the rest of the Olympics worry free.
