    Hockey India League: Cooper Burns and Alexander Hendrickx said that their team's focus was on 'consistency' after Kalinga Lancers secured their spot in the Men’s Hockey India League 2025–26 playoffs with a dominant 6-1 win against SG Pipers at the Kalinga Hockey Stadium on Saturday.

    The table toppers extended their winning streak to five matches and remain at the top of the standings with 14 points from five games. Burns scored twice (8’, 23’) and Hendrickx also netted two goals (39’, 56’), while Craig Marais (10’) and Angad Singh (54’) contributed with one goal each for the Lancers.

    Reflecting on the outcome and the team’s development in the competition, Belgian drag flicker Alexander Hendrickx said, “It was a strong team performance and another important step for us. The morale in the group is really good, but we are also keeping our feet on the ground. We know results can change quickly in this league, so the focus is on continuing to improve and looking at the bigger picture.”
