(The Quiver): The Indian team is all geared up to take on England in their next set of FIH Hockey Pro League 2021/22 matches, which are scheduled to take place on April 2 and 3 at the Kalinga Hockey Stadium.
Ahead of the two-legged affair, Indian captain Amit Rohidas spoke about the opposition and emphasised on the need to stick to their plans for the matches.
“They have a lot of young players in the team, and they have come with a lot of motivation,” Rohidas stated at the pre-match virtual press conference. “Each team plays to win matches, so it will certainly be a good challenge for us.
”Rohidas added: “Our focus will be to stick to our plans, just like we did against Argentina. We managed a draw in the first game and won the second game in the last minute. It was a really good performance from the team, so it will be really important to play according to the plans and strategies that we make against our opponents.”
Currently placed second in the FIH Hockey Pro League points table, India has thus far registered five wins and three losses in eight matches.
