Chief selector R P Singh isn’t just picking stars; he’s building a team that can press, pass, and defend all over the pitch. Youngsters aren’t waiting for their turn; they’re already proving they belong. And veterans? They’re not just showing up; they’re managing pressure, leading by example. The real story here? India’s hockey system is maturing. It’s not about one big win; it’s about building depth. Singh’s looking ahead to 2028, already grooming the next wave. That’s not hopeful thinking; it’s planning. And that’s why this squad doesn’t just have a shot at a medal; they have a system that could keep delivering, long after the noise fades.
