Manpreet Was Not Rested By Management; He Requested Break: Hockey India Gen Secy Bhola Nath
Hockey India Gen Secy Bhola: Hockey India general secretary Bhola Nath Singh clarified that the omission of veteran midfielder Manpreet Singh from the squad was not a decision taken by the team management. According to him, Manpreet had requested a break, which was duly considered.
Manpreet, along with goalkeeper Krishan Bahadur Pathak and forward Dilpreet Singh, was left out of the 33-member squad named for the national preparatory camp for the FIH Pro League scheduled from February 1 to 7.
Earlier reports had suggested that Manpreet was dropped due to disciplinary issues, allegedly linked to an incident during India’s three-Test series in South Africa from December 2 to 16. The tour was a challenging one for the Indian team, which lost two matches, while the third ended in a draw.
