This has been a really poor show by both Divyansh Panwar and Deepak Kumar. They were certainly not the medal contenders in this event, but this was just plain disappointing.
If Divyansh was inconsistent with his shots, Deepak was consistent but just could not hit the higher 10s more often.
The start was very poor and both of them gradually picked up as the event went by, but the others were just brilliant and the Indians did not even get a sniff.
In fact, Deepak's final position of 26th was the highest India ever had in this match.
So while the country's pistol shooters at least went down fighting, the rifle shooters (both men and women) simply surrendered. Not what one would expect in a stage as big as the Olympics.
