Indian Men’s Hockey Team Captain Harmanpreet Singh credited teamwork after finishing as the leading scorer in the recently FIH Hockey Pro League. Harman finished the competition as the tournament’s top scorer with 18 goals.
The ace drag flicker was also the tournament’s leading goal-scorer in the previous edition, scoring 18 goals in the previous edition as well. Harmanpreet was followed by Belgian Hendrickx Alexander, who scored 13 goals in the tournament, and British Bandurak Nicholas, who scored 12 goals in 16 games in the 2022-23 FIH Hockey Pro League. The Indian Team finished fourth in the recent Pro League, behind the Netherlands, Great Britain, and Belgium. Despite finishing fourth, the Indian Men’s Hockey Team led the tournament in goal scoring with 51 goals under its name from 16 games.
Speaking about the same, Harmanpreet said, “I firmly believe that success in penalty corner conversion is a team effort. While I may be the one taking the shots, it’s the collective hard work of the entire team that makes it possible. From the pushers to the stoppers and the flickers, each player plays a crucial role in creating the opportunity and executing the penalty corner flawlessly.”
