Fresh off her bronze medal in the 50m rifle 3 positions event at the ISSF World Cup in Munich, India's rising shooter Sift Kaur Samra believes the soon-to-be-launched Shooting League of India (SLI) has the potential to revolutionize the sport—much like the Indian Premier League did for cricket. The 23-year-old, who hails from Punjab and holds the world record in the event with her historic 469.6-point finish at the 2022 Asian Games, believes the SLI can redefine shooting in India much the same way the IPL transformed cricket's domestic landscape.
