Feels India’s best bet is in 10m air rifle & pistol mixed events
The Indian shooters will be high on confidence at the Tokyo Olympics thanks to their consistent performances at the highest level in recent times, London Games bronze medallist Gagan Narang said on Tuesday. He said the 15-member squad combined experience and exciting young talent. “I feel India has the best chance to win medals in mixed events in both 10m air rifle and pistol events. Those who have been at the Olympics can count on their experience, while the young brigade will have no baggage to carry and this can be the biggest advantage,” the 38-year-old told The Hindu.More Related News
