Hockey: India Look To Build Momentum In Netherlands Leg Of FIH Men’s Pro League
Hockey India President Dilip Tirkey: With just four points from eight matches and languishing at the penultimate spot in the nine-team competition, the Indian men's hockey team will get into the last two rounds of the FIH Pro League, hoping to climb from the relegation zone and retain their spot for the next season.
Placed just above the point-less Pakistan, India have only three draws and a shoot-out bonus to show from the eight games they have played so far. The team will be hoping to win some matches in the remaining matches of the season.
Besides improving their position in the Pro League standings, the matches will also help the Indian team prepare for the upcoming 2026 FIH World Cup, which will be hosted by Belgium and the Netherlands from August 15-30.
