We need to make good start at Men’s HWL Semi-Final: Singh

TIL Desk Sports/ Chinglensana Singh, who has recently been appointed as the vice-captain of the Indian senior men’s hockey team, has admitted that he is excited and honoured to take up the new responsibility as his side head into the Three Nations Invitational Tournament, beginning June 1.

“This is an important tour for us in our preparations for the World League Final in December and I am very excited to be entrusted with this new responsibility,” expressed Chinglensana on the sidelines of the ongoing national camp in SAI, Bengaluru.

As a midfielder, Chinglensana is fast with the ability to set off aggressively inside the opponent’s half creating a chance for the Indians to breakout. His skill to dribble with pace ends with him making a perfect pass to an unmarked teammate who would then take a shot on goal. He is often entrusted with the role of a stopper too when Harmanpreet Singh or Rupinder Pal Singh attempts a dragflick to convert penalty corner.
