A team of goalies!

Pune: The Indian hockey team has made headlines in the recent past for various reasons.

Even as the boys undergo a national camp in Pune, the spree continues. The camp, which is being conducted at the Shiv Chhatrapati Sports Complex in Balewadi, has 45 probables fighting for their berths in the squad for the Sultan Azlan Shah Cup in May.

But out of 45 players, 11 are goalkeepers! Asked the reason for keeping so many goalkeepers among the probables, national coach Harinder Singh said it will benefit the team in the long run.

“This will be good for the team in the long run as we will get to see the calibre of different players at the same time,” he said.
