Bindra fumbles, India misses team gold by one point Gagan Narang stumbled at the start and finish and had to settle for two silver medals as India opened its shooting campaign on a healthy note in the Asian Games on Saturday.

Zhu Qinan got the smile back on his face, after the tearful farewell in the Beijing Olympics, when he won two gold medals for China with a solid performance.On a day when Olympic champion Abhinav Bindra had to endure the ignominy of a 7' on his 42nd shot that spoilt his chances in the individual event as well as a gold for the team by one point, Narang shot with authority to capture the individual silver 1.3 points behind the Chinese in a riveting final.

Narang did well to arrest an alarming sequence when he dropped two more points in the second series. He shot four successive series of 100s to end up with 597 and one point behind the Athens Olympics champion Qinan.
