    Hockey: Varun Kumar Eyes India A Call-up As Path Back To Senior Team

    By IANS News July 04, 2025 • 13:18 PM View: 284
    Junior World Cup: Tokyo Olympics bronze medallist Varun Kumar sees his selection in the India 'A' squad as a chance to return to the senior national team, having been out of the side for over a year.

    "Missing out on the Paris Olympics was painful. I know I was in the reckoning to make the squad but now, I have left the past behind and ready to start fresh with this opportunity to play for India 'A'," expressed the defender, dragflicker who was also part of the Junior World Cup fame in 2016.

    Varun was last seen in India colours during the India vs Germany friendly match in New Delhi last year but to receive a call-up for the India 'A' side ahead of the marquee Asia Cup in August puts Varun in good stead to return to the senior side.
