'I Want To Give My Best': Simranjeet Singh Eyeing National Team Comeback Via HIL Route
Hockey India League: Indian hockey team midfielder Simranjeet Singh is setting his eyes on a comeback in the national fold via the upcoming Hockey India League (HIL) where he is set to represent UP Rudras.
The 27-year-old, who had his share of highs in India's historic bronze medal in the Tokyo Olympics, has been out of the national setup since last year but is steadfast in his approach to earn a place back.
"In the Tokyo Olympics, we won the bronze medal after 42 years and in Paris, we repeated the history and again bagged a bronze medal. So, I feel it's a circle - some players come and some players go. I feel there were my weaknesses and back-to-back injuries before Paris that ruled me out of the Olympics. I feel coaches think about long-term and that's why they chose young players in the squad and they performed well. I want to give my best in the HIL and focus on one match at a time," Simranjeet told IANS on Thursday.
