The mixed pair competition, which will make its Games debut here on Saturday, is seen as India’s best medal hope in archery.
Deepika Kumari will partner Pravin Jadhav in the archery mixed pair event of the Olympic Games after the debutant was preferred by the team think-tank ahead of her husband and more experienced Atanu Das based on form shown in Friday’s qualification round. The mixed pair competition, which will make its Games debut here on Saturday, is seen as India’s best medal hope in archery where the country is yet to win an Olympic medal. Based on the combined scores of Jadhav and Deepika Kumari, who finished ninth earlier in the day, India secured a similar ninth place ranking for the mixed pair competition.More Related News
