India’s women gymnastics team finishes seventh
With Dipa Karamakar’s injured knee reducing her to a support role from the sidelines ahead of the gymnastics women’s team all-around finals, the Indian side finished seventh with a total of 138.050 points. Even with Dipa Karmakar in the fray, India would have found it tough to be among the medals, the least of which went to Japan with 157.150 points.
The Indian team’s best performance came in the vault where it compiled 39.100 points. And that was good only for the seventh place overall on the apparatus. Its worst was on balance beam and uneven bars where it mustered a mere 32.400 points each. If it is any consolation, India was ranked sixth on the beam
India had a chance of finishing in sixth place but its showing on the beam at a time when Malaysia rustled up 34.900 on the uneven bars meant that it had to settle for seventh place ahead of the home team, Indonesia (129.350).

Rahi goes with another perfect series. All eyes on Manu seems to have helped Rahi.
Rahi missed her first shot on her 12th attempt. Manu has had a bad round, she’s in fifth. Rahi leads by two.
Sighting shots done. The athletes are getting ready.
The scoring system here is simple, 10.2 or more counts and a hit. Anything less is a miss. Also, the pistol shots are a lot louder than the air pistol.
Rahi starts with a perfect series. Manu only three out of five. The clips are back in for the next series.
