Legends Harbinder Singh, Zafar Iqbal Welcome Return Of International Hockey To New Delhi
India will face off against the Olympic silver medallists on October 23 and 24. International hockey is returning to New Delhi after a decade with this event and several dignitaries, including former hockey stars are expected to attend the event. The last time India played at the Major Dhyan Chand National Stadium was at the Hockey World League Final – Men’s Round 4, back in January 2014.
“1972 was the last time I played hockey in Delhi for the national team. I remember the Shivaji Stadium was filled to the brim and the fans were on their feet cheering for us. I believe a lot of fans will turn up to cheer for India and Germany as well. They will be witnessing a high-level international match after a decade after all,” Padma Shri Harbinder Singh, winner of the 1964 Tokyo gold, 1968 Mexico bronze, and 1972 Munich bronze at the Olympics commented.
