Telecom Asia Sport: Pakistan hockey players are left frustrated at the sport's administrators in the country for their inability to arrange proper preparation for their two matches against arch-rivals India in the FIH Men's Pro League 2026 in June this year, a news report claimed on Monday.

The Pakistan hockey team is struggling with no camp and no high-profile coach for the key matches, a report in Telecom Asia Sport has said.

Pakistan is featuring in the nine-team Pro League for the first time, making the grade as a lucky entrant after New Zealand withdrew because of financial constraints. Poor results, besides a lack of preparation, have left them on the verge of being eliminated from the top league involving nine of the strongest teams in the world. Pakistan have lost all their matches with the Netherlands (5-2 and 7-3), Argentina (3-2 and 5-1), Australia (3-2 and 3-0), and Germany (5-2 and 6-1).
