Final qualification unlikely for the Indians
The qualification to the final of Men's Skeet looks highly unlikely for Angad Bajwa and Mairaj Khan, thanks to a below-par show in the fourth round.
Both of them have to be at the very best, and need a lot of luck with others letting their guard down if they are to stand any chance of making it into the Top 6.
