Paris Paralympics 2024 Para-Shooting: Avani Lekhara, Sidhartha Babu, Sriharsha Ramakrishna eliminated in mixed 10m air rifle prone qualifiers

After winning three medals in the Paris Paralympics 2024 para-shooting events on Day 2, India’s campaign suffered a big setback as the para-shooting stars Avani Lekhara, Sidhartha Babu, and Sriharsha Devaraddi Ramakrishna failed to qualify to the finals of their respective categories’ in the mixed 10m air rifle prone events on Sunday.

Avani, who scripted para-shooting history on Friday by becoming the first Indian para-athlete to win back-to-back Paralympic gold medals, finished on a disappointing 11th position with a total score of 632.8 in the mixed 10m air rifle prone SH1 qualification event.

Sidhartha Babu, a national-level record holder in para-shooting, finished worse off in the 28th spot in the SH1 category, managing a total score of 628.3.

Sidhartha, who won a gold medal in the 2022 Asian Para Games with an Asian para-shooting record, would need to introspect about his poor performance in the qualification which saw him finish some way off the event topper, Veronika Vadovicova of Slovakia (637.8).
