Hocket Team Crisis

Bollywood legend Amitabh Bachchan on Sunday said that the Indian hockey team has asked him to spearhead a fund-raising concert to be held in Chandigarh.

After India's women's hockey team refused to accept the offer of Rs 50,000 each from Hockey India, the on-screen hockey team of the 'Chak De' fame have come ahead and decided to help the cash-deprived team.

A five-member Hockey India delegation led by President A K Mattoo arrived in Pune this morning to hold talks with revolting national players, who have stalled the ongoing World Cup preparatory camp to protest the non-payment of their financial dues.

New worries for both Hockey India and hockey in India. The national team has once again gone on strike and a senior official has said the team is mentally shattered and needs to get back to practice immediately.
