Whereas, Gagan Narang, 27, the hero of the recent Commonwealth Games in Delhi, won the silver medal in the 10m air rifle individual event and then teamed up with Bindra and Sanjeev Rajput to add another silver in the team affair.
Narang, could not surpass the world record of 703.5 that he holds and shot a score of 700.7 (597+103.7) to clear up for silver behind China's Qinan Zhu (598+104).
“The Chinese are always strong in shooting, but this is a sport where the competition is within yourself not the other guy,” said Narang.
Meanwhile, ace Indian shuttler Saina Nehwal opened the game by beating Indonesia’s Adriyanti Firdasari in the women's badminton team event.

Nehwal, who captured gold last month at the Commonwealth Games in New Delhi, won her match 21-16, 21-17, but not enough to thwart her team from going down 3-2 overall.
"I don't want to think much about it," said the 20-year-old from Hyderabad and the first Indian woman to win a Super Series title. "I just want to take one game at a time and do my best."
