Veteran Indian shooter Abhishek Verma said that it would be very challenging to maintain the rhythm and concentration after the Olympic one year postponement due to the Covid-19 epidemic but he is ready for it. The practice session of the players has been affected after the lockdown implemented nationwide due to Coronavirus infection. The postponement of these games to be held in four years distracts them. The shooter, who won the gold medal twice in the World Cup, said, "It will be very challenging to achieve the rhythm and then maintain it. Although this will give us time for preparation, but one year is enough time.

He went to Chandigarh to meet his parents for two-three days but had to stay there due to the lockdown. Verma has to compromise his practice due to the lockdown. He is happy to stay at home but the shooters continue to practice throughout the year to maintain the rhythm. Verma finds it strange to spend time without his belongings.
