The Indian shooting contingent at the ISSF Shotgun World Cup failed to break their streak of disappointing performances, as both mixed team duos placed poorly in the standings on Thursday.

The team of Olympian Prithviraj Tondaiman and Kirti Gupta scored a total of 134, landing them in 18th place out of 33 teams. Meanwhile, the other pair, Kynan Chenai and Rajeshwari Kumari, finished in 25th with a total score of 130 in their season debut.

The poor show threatens India's chances at the Asian Games, with none of the current squad members retained for the upcoming World Cup in Almaty. Despite the struggles, Zoravar Singh's omission due to 'workload management' remains a debatable decision.
