Chandigarh, September 30

Shooter Sarabjot Singh, a student of DAV College, Sector 10, won the 10m air pistol mixed team silver during the ongoing Hangzhou Asian Games.

The Indian pair was beaten by world champion marksman Zhang Bowen and compatriot Jiang Ranxin, who logged a 16-14 victory in the shoot-off for the top podium finish.

Sarabjot, who had won the men’s 10m air pistol team gold with Arjun Singh Cheema and Shiva Narwal, looked on course to bring India its seventh gold in the mixed team event partnering Divya, but a few poor shots during the latter part of the shoot-off undid the good work done by the pair in the qualification round.

An MA student at DAV College, Sarabjot hails from Ambala and trains under coach Abhishek Rana. He had earlier won a gold medal each at the 53rd ISSF World Shooting Championship in Baku (Azerbaijan) and at ISSF World Cup in Bhopal.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind.
