With 10 days to go for the start of the Hero Hockey Champions trophy, the last major international hockey tournament of the season, the preparations have already begun in the host city Bhubaneswar.

While the India team is most likely scheduled to arrive on November 27 and start their practice session from next day, a team of officials have already arrived in the capital city.

According to reports, the officials are reviewing the current state of the pitch and the arrangements made so far.

While the sale of tickets has already begun, a house-full stadium is expected, as it was during the Hockey India League early this year.

The Champions trophy will start from December 6 and continue till December 14. India is tied in Pool B along with the Netherlands, Germany and Argentina.

India will play its first match against Germany.
