The World Cup was overshadowed by the ongoing tensions between hosts India and Pakistan.

India refused visas for two Pakistani shooters hoping to compete after a group from the country claimed responsibility for a terrorist attack in Pulwama in Kashmir on February 14, which killed 40 members of the Indian police force.

The International Olympic Committee responded by removing Olympic quota places for the specific event in which Ghulam Mustafa Bashir and Khalil Ahmed were due to compete, the 25m rapid fire pistol.

They also suspended all discussions with India regarding applications to host future events.

Relations between the two countries have since soured dramatically with each making strikes into the other's territory.
