Deepak Kumar brought more glory for India from the shooting range on Monday by winning a silver medal in the men's 10m Air Rifle event at the Asian Games 2018 being held in Indonesian cities of Jakarta and Palembang. The team of Apurvi Chandela and Ravi Kumar had won bronze in 10m Air Rifle Mixed Team event on Day 1 but Deepak Kumar did one better, winning the silver with 247.7 points behind China's Haoran Yang, who won gold with a Games Record total of 249.1. Deepak's compatriot Ravi Kumar, who for the longest time was in third position, finished a commendable fourth.

Deepak Kumar was languishing in 5th spot for much of the event after making a fast start but recovered brilliantly towards the end to leapfrog two shooters in one series of shots.
