India's Women's 25m Pistol Team Misses Asian Games Medal After Frame Hit Controversy
India's women's 25m pistol team finished fifth at the Asian Games after a critical frame hit by Rahi Sarnobat resulted in a zero score for one shot. India appealed the decision, citing possible scoring system errors, but the authorities upheld the call, attributing the error to Sarnobat firing before settling on the target. Sarnobat expressed uncertainty about the frame hit, noting the absence of typical sounds and confusion over electronic target displays. The incident affected both her individual ranking and the team's medal chances.
