Indian Men's Hockey Team Leaves For Crucial Four-match Series In Australia
Kempegowda International Airport: The Indian men’s hockey team departed for Australia in the early hours of Friday from Kempegowda International Airport, Bengaluru, as they gear up for a crucial four-match series against the hosts. The series, set to take place at the Perth Hockey Stadium from August 15 to 21, will serve as vital preparation for the upcoming Hero Asia Cup 2025, scheduled in Rajgir, Bihar later this month.
The tour is expected to provide the team with valuable match exposure against one of the world’s top-ranked sides, allowing the coaching staff to fine-tune combinations and assess player form ahead of the continental tournament.
Indian men’s hockey team captain Harmanpreet Singh, speaking ahead of departure, said, “Playing Australia in their home conditions is always a great challenge, and that’s exactly what we need at this stage of our preparations. We’re treating this series as a key part of our build-up to the Asia Cup. The focus is on improving as a unit, pushing ourselves against strong opposition, and building the momentum we need going into Rajgir.”
