Narang, who had bagged a bronze at the the 2012 London Olympics in 10-m air rifle event, missed out on a place since his last six scores were not good enough.
The last scores included the ones recorded in World Cups, National Championships and national trials. &ldquo;That is the criteria for selecting teams,&rdquo; National Rifle Association of India Secretary Rajiv Bhatia said. The Hyderabad-based ace shooter, who won four gold medals in the 2010 Delhi CWG, will, however, compete in men&rsquo;s 50m 3-position rifle and 50-m prone events alongside Sanjeev Rajput and Joydeep Karmakar,&nbsp;respectively at the quadrennial event to be held in Glasgow from July 23 to Aug 3.
