A 12-member Indian rifle shooting team will be aiming for medals at the ISSF World Cup 2022 in Baku, Azerbaijan from May 28 to June 7.
Tokyo Olympians Elavenil Valarivan, Anjum Moudgil will lead a young Indian squad. Anjum had won two silver medals at the world championships in 2018 while Elavenil was a junior world champion.
Dhanush Srikanth, who won the 10m air rifle and mixed team rifle gold medal at the Deaflympics 2021 earlier this month, will be making his ISSF World Cup debut in Baku.
Some of the shooters who were in action at the Junior World Cup two weeks ago in Suhl, Germany, have also been included in the squad.
Paarth Makhija and Rudrankksh Patil won the gold medal in the men’s rifle team event while the latter also clinched an individual 10m gold. Meanwhile Ramita, 18, returned with three medals – one gold, two silver – from the junior meet.
Olympian Divyansh Singh Panwar, currently India’s top men’s rifle shooter, however, isn’t traveling to Baku.
Although the ISSF World Cup features rifle, pistol and shotgun events, the National Rifle Association of India (NRAI) has only sent rifle shooters for the event.
