But here’s what’s interesting: the team wasn’t just celebrating. They were already prepping for the individual finals; because two of them made the cut. Maheshwari Chauhan, Parinaaz Dhaliwal, and Raiza Dhillon scored 331 as a team, beating out several Asian rivals. But beyond stats, this is about consistency; hitting targets under pressure, day after day. While the men’s side had only one finalist (Anant Jeet Singh Naruka), the women’s squad showed depth; and potential. And yes, Manu Bhaker, who made it to the 10m air pistol final, didn’t podium; but she’s still one of India’s most reliable shooters. That’s the reality of elite sport: not every final ends in gold. But every shot builds a legacy. This isn’t just a medal. It’s a signal: Indian shooting is evolving; and it’s not done yet.
