Ten-pin bowling in India is administered by the Tenpin Bowling Federation of India (TBFI), which selects national representatives for international tournaments organised under the World Bowling federation and its Asian arm. Indian bowlers have participated in events such as the Asian Bowling Championships, the World Bowling Championships, and multi-sport events including the Asian Games and the Commonwealth Games when bowling has featured on the programme.
Rao has been associated with the Indian women's ten-pin bowling circuit, appearing in domestic competitions and representing India in international fixtures. As is typical of bowlers at this level, she has competed in the standard formats of the sport — singles, doubles, trios, team events and all-events — at championships sanctioned by recognised bowling bodies.
Indian women bowlers, including Rao, have contributed to the gradual growth of ten-pin bowling as a competitive sport in India, where the discipline remains a niche pursuit compared with cricket, badminton and other mainstream sports. Their participation in continental and world events has helped raise the profile of the sport in the country.
