Meanwhile, none of the Indian ladies made it through the first round of the 10m air rifle competition. Elavenil Valarivan, a Tokyo Olympian, finished ninth with 629.1, followed by Shreya Agrawal with 627.0 and Ramita with 626.2.
Despite the fact that the Baku ISSF World Cup includes rifle, pistol, and shotgun events, the National Rifle Association of India (NRAI) has only fielded rifle shooters. The shooting World Cup comes to a finish on June 6, with the rifle events wrapping up on June 4.
