LordPrabhzy Posted January 20 Author Share Posted January 20 It’s all well spending 1000s of crores on stadiums and international events in one state but if investment isn’t made at grassroots levels all across the country to adapt to the fast paced modern hockey on Astros then all we are doing is providing fantastic facilities and stadiums for the European teams to thrash us in front of the home crowd and have nothing to show for it nitinbwj 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neel roy Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 On 1/14/2023 at 3:17 PM, neel roy said: Btw hope everyone knows the format of the tournament. So all group leaders directly qualify for quarter finals after group stage. Those who finish second and third across the groups go to a cross over and they play amongst each other to go to quarter finals. so lets say India in group D finishes first they ll qualify for quarter finals. But if they finish second they ll play 3rd placed team in group C ( Chile or Malaysia) to reach quarter finals. If India finishes third in group stage they ll play the runners up in group C ( most probably Kane Williamsons country) in a knock out match to reach quarterfinals. pros of this format is even if you finish third you still have a chance to go and win the tournament. Cons is you need to play an extra match to go to qrtr finals even if you finish 2nd in the group. Somehow i had this inkling India would play nz in a knock out match again..we dont have Hardik as well..universe conspires against us.. but we should beat them..

If not for Patnaik hockey it would be dead in India too. it may not be 'dead' but we are stagnating at a particular middle ground level where we are 'marginally' better than asian teams but cannot compete at the same level against full time Europe teams and Aussies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Infact we were leading in good part of the game. Belgium got lead in last quarter then we took out our goalkeeper and they scored 2 more in dying moments. Aus though yeah thrashed us badly like most of the times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
