TIL Desk Sports/ Sardar Singh, former captain of the Indian men’s hockey team, is confident that the Manpreet Singh-led can end the medal drought and make a podium finish at the Tokyo Olympics.
India last won a gold in Hockey in 1980 in Moscow Olympics. Since then, they have participated in eight Olympic editions but have failed to make a podium finish. “Having played 314 international matches, I will always regret not being able to add an Olympic medal on the wall back home,” Sardar was quoted as saying by Hockey India.
“But watching this team grow from strength to strength in the past year and the way they played the FIH Hockey Pro League earlier this year, I have great hope that they can bag that elusive Olympic medal. They definitely have a realistic chance in Tokyo.
