Even though today is the official start of the competitions, Indians have started competing since day before yesterday. Archery ranking round was held and Indians - Men's, Women's and Mixed teams are directly through to the Quarters.
Today all events starts at noon India time.
Shooting -
We have 10m Air Rifle Mixed team event. We have two teams competing. There are a total of 29 teams and we have Elavenil and Sandeep Singh Ramita and Arjun competing. Elavenil and Sandeep should have a good chance of progressing to the finals. Which is at 2 pm India time.
Followed by 10m Air Pistol Men's Qualification at 2pm - Arjun Cheema and Sarabjot Singh
Followed by 10m Air Pistol Women's Qualification at 4pm - Manu Bhakar and Rhythm Sangwan
