Mairaj Ahmad Khan Competes in Fourth Asian Games After Transition from Cricket to Shooting
Mairaj Ahmad Khan, 50, is competing in his fourth Asian Games as a shooter, having transitioned from cricket in 1999. Originally a left-handed top-order batsman who played alongside Virender Sehwag at university level, Khan shifted focus to shooting, inspired by his family's background and experiences in Delhi. He has represented India in two Olympics and won World Cup medals, bringing veteran experience to the current Indian contingent at the Aichi-Nagoya Asian Games.
