we did not play well today but what I liked was that we beat the opposition in the last second..something that happens to our senior team team other way round
Our Junior Team which won Junior World Cup in 2001 with players like Gagan Ajit, Jugraj Singh was superbly talented and they all did well at Senior Level. But they were overage. All that squad faded in 5-6 years. Hopefully this time we have real U-21 players. Then we can hope for good next 8-9 years. Overage players is a big problem.
Dhoni and Sahara Adventure Sports Limited buys Ranchi Rhinos Franchise in HIL and rename it Ranchi Rays. Very interesting as Sahara Group already owns Lucknow Franchise in HIL. I thought bank accounts of Sahara Group are frozen and Sahara Shri is in Tihar Jail???
Owner of Mumbai Franchise Pradip Burman has been named in Black Money list. Hockey India League (HIL) is a unique league with almost all of the Franchise owners have criminal cases going against them.
