India had a poor start on the first day with both the medal hopes in shooting Anjali Bhagwat and Avneet Sidhu, failed to qualify (29 n 39 respectively) for the finals in Women's 10m Air Rifle. Shortly after that Samaresh Jung - 42 also disappointed in Men's 10m Air Pistol.
On the Archery front things were not good either with Dola Banerjee, Pranitha Vardineni and Bombayla Devi getting poor rankings ( 31, 37,22 respectively) in Women's Individual event. They will have to give a miraculous performance tomorrow to finish on podium.
But in the mid-day Indian camp had something to cheer-up. Mangal Singh Champia's - 2 Rank finish in Men's Individual Archery event created stirr. "Singh" was really the "King" of the day. Lets pray he continues his form and finishes in medals on 13th.
Others who qualified include Bajranglal Takhar in Men's Single Sculls, Manavjit Singh Samdhu and Mansher Singh ranked 12 and 21 respectively in Men's Trap Shooting event.
