‘Next Two Months Crucial For The Team’, Says Indian Men's Hockey Team Captain Harmanpreet Singh

By IANS News August 01, 2023 • 15:15 PM View: 945

Asian Champions Trophy: With the team set to play the Asian Champions Trophy in Chennai followed by the Asian Games in Hangzhou, China, in the next two months will be crucial for the Indian men's hockey team, says skipper Harmanpreet Singh.

The team is targeting the Asian Games as winning the gold medal will also earn a direct berth to next year's Olympic Games in Paris. India won a bronze medal in the Tokyo Olympic Games and would like to improve on that in Paris and prove that Tokyo was not a flash in the pan and that Indian hockey is really on the upswing.
