By The Assam Tribune

New Delhi, Oct 9 (PTI): England drew abreast of India in the neck-to-neck gold medal race and went ahead by one before the host nation drew level in a thrilling two-horse race for second position in the Commonwealth Games today.

India's Vijay Kumar and Harpreet Singh won the 25m centre fire pistol men's pair gold, their 11th from the Dr Karni Singh range and 21st in the Games which are at the halfway mark.

Suma Shirur and Kavita Yadav grabbed the bronze in the women's 10m air rifle pairs competition to provide the country with their 21st shooting medal, only six short of the record tally of 27 bagged in Melbourne four years ago.
