If skipper Harmanpreet Singh is on song with his drag-flicks, there’s nothing to worry: Hockey India chief Dilip Tirkey

Dilip Tirkey, the former captain and current Hockey India president, is optimistic about the Indian team’s prospects at the upcoming Paris Olympics. He believes that if captain Harmanpreet Singh performs at his best, India has a strong chance of improving upon their medal finish from the previous Olympics. In the 2021 Tokyo Olympics, India secured a historic bronze medal by defeating Germany, ending a 41-year medal drought in hockey at the Olympic Games. As the team prepares for the Paris Games, which commence on July 26, the expectations are high for them to surpass their previous performance.
