The Indians were defeated 12-16 by Vitalina Batsarashkina and Artem Chernousov of Russia in the gold medal match.<\/p>\n<p>In the 10m Air Pistol Mixed Team Event, Manu Bhaker and Saurabh Chaudhary were aiming for their sixth World Cup gold medal in a row. Their winning streak began in 2019 in the New Delhi World Cup. They have won gold medals in New Delhi, Beijing, Munich, and Rio de Janeiro in 2019 and they followed that up with another gold medal in New Delhi earlier this year.<\/p>\n<p>Their winning streak, however, came to an end in Osijek when they faced the experienced Batsarashkina and Chernousov. Saurabh and Manu were down 2-6 after the sixth series, but they rallied to tie the game at 6-6. They faltered once more, with Manu failing to hit 10-pointers with consistency. With a 12-6 advantage, the Russians appeared to be cruising to victory, but the Indian duo rallied back to tie the game at 12-12.<\/p>\n<p>After then, the Russians clinched the gold medal by winning the next two series.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Many congratulations to <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/realmanubhaker?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@realmanubhaker<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/SChaudhary2002?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@SChaudhary2002<\/a> for winning the \ud83e\udd48 in 10m Air Pistol Mixed Team at the @ISSF_Shooting World Cup in Osijek.<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/Cheer4India?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#Cheer4India<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/JLTcmVM4Bg\">pic.twitter.com\/JLTcmVM4Bg<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 SAI Media (@Media_SAI) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Media_SAI\/status\/1408772271364182017?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">June 26, 2021<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, India\u2019s Abhishek Verma and Yashaswini Deswal ended outside the podium in the Mixed Team Air Pistol event after losing their bronze medal match 7-17 to Iran\u2019s Golnoush Sebghatollahi and Javad Foroughi.<\/p>\n<p>India has won three medals at the ISSF World Cup, which takes place a month before the Tokyo Olympics.
