In the bronze medal contest against China, Lyu and Jyang scripted scores of 4/4 in the Station 1 of the contest. Chauhan also scored 4/4 in her first round, but Anant Jeet Singh Naruka missed a target in his first attempt, shooting only 3/4. India were trailing China as they began shooting at the Station 2 of the contest.
Once again, Anant Jeet Singh Naruka missed out on a crucial target as he scored 3/4 in Station 2. Chauhan too ended up missing one of the targets in Station 2, whereas Jiang missed three targets. This meant the overall scores were level at 16-16 after the second station, and at the conclusion of Station 3, China ended up taking a lad of 24-20 against India in the contest. After Station 4, India were trailing China by a point, but the Anant-Maheshwari duo began the fifth station on a strong note.
Anant and Maheshwari hit all targets precisely in the fifth station and so did the Chinese pair. However, those crucial misses from Anant and Maheshwari in the initial rounds proved costly for India, as they fell sort by one point in the end.
