Re: Pakistan hockey

So thanks to the moderator, this did not prove to be "another bad day for Pakistan hockey". But my original though was due to the fact due to loosing to South Korea in the Asia Cup final, Pakistan had to play this qualifier.

Re: Pakistan hockey

Sohail Abbas added two more goals to his tally and became the top scorer of the tournament.

He should be sent to the Champions Challenge so that he can further consolidate his world record. He should not be excluded on the pretext of not attempting trials or the camp. He should be exempt of this.

Re: Pakistan hockey

I am really surprised that they can't find younger players who are good enough to replace older players like Abbas. Our hockey desperately need young players.

Re: Pakistan hockey

He is 31 now. During last 3 years they tried many youngster so that they would win a major title. They failed.

Had they they retain Sohail, at least Pakistan would have achieved something - an unbeatable world record.
