Paris Olympics medallist Manu Bhaker and senior pro Chain Singh made it to the finals of their respective events but could not nail a podium finish as India endured a medal-less day at the ISSF World Cup here Wednesday.
Double Olympic bronze-medallist shooter Bhaker finished sixth in 25m pistol after entering the eight shooter final placed fifth with an aggregate ‘precision’ and ‘rapid fire’ score of 588.
Chain made it to final of the men's 50m rifle 3-positions event on the back of a fine qualification round score but finished seventh in the eight-shooter medal round.
On the opening day of the competition Tuesday, India won a bronze through Elavenil Valarivan in women's 10m air rifle event.
