Pistol National Selection Trials: Haryana’s teenage pistol shooter Suruchi remained unstoppable as she swept aside a top domestic line-up to win the women’s 10m air pistol T1 match at the Rifle/Pistol National Selection Trials (Group A), currently going-on at the Dr. Karni Singh Shooting range (DKSSR) here on Thursday.

Suruchi had caused more than a flutter in this new season after winning seven gold medals at the Nationals and then a couple more at the National Games. She continued in the same fashion in the National Selection Trials.

The day’s other two finals, the men’s 50m rifle 3 positions (3P) T2 and the men’s 10m air pistol T1, were also bagged by the respective newly-crowned national champions in the event -- the Navy’s Kiran Ankush Jadhav taking the 3P title while Army’s Varun Tomar emerging triumphant in men’s air pistol.
