Shymkent (Kazakhstan), Aug 27 (PTI) Indian shooter Anish Bhanwala claimed the silver medal in the men’s 25m Rapid Fire Pistol event of the ongoing Asian Shooting Championships here on Wednesday.
The 22-year-old Anish finished with a total of 35, just one shy of gold-winner Su Lianbofan of China. The bronze went to Korea’s Lee Jaekyoon.
The Indian had a one-point lead after the first four series but fell behind after that.
