‘We Can Feel The Interceptions Happening; Players And Staff Are Safe,’ Says Indian Basketball Captain Gurbaz Sandhu
FIBA Basketball World Cup: The Indian men's national basketball team captain Gurbaz Sandhu shared the experience from Doha, Qatar, where the team has been stranded due to the West Asia crisis, saying, 'The team heard the missile interceptions over Doha on Thursday, but we remain safe at our hotel', as players and staff are being well looked after by officials and authorities.
The Indian contingent went to Doha, Qatar for their participation in the FIBA Basketball World Cup 2027 Asian Qualifiers, but is currently stranded there after airspace disruptions halted travel plans due to the US-Israel attack on Iran that disrupted the airspace in the Middel East region.
“Right now, the Qatar Federation and the BFI (Basketball Federation of India), along with the embassy, have arranged accommodation for us in the same hotel where we were staying earlier for the matches. There is no issue with accommodation at all; they have taken proper care of it,” Sandhu told IANS.
