The Story in Brief
The Indian men's hockey team begins its title quest at the FIH World Cup with a clash against Wales in Amstelveen, Netherlands. Coach Craig Fulton told NDTV Sports, "We want to write our own piece of history in Indian hockey." India has not won the World Cup since 1975, a drought spanning more than half a century. The team is determined to break that jinx.
The Indian Opinion
Indian hockey fans often swing from euphoria after Olympic success to despair over early exits. This side has shown grit, but the World Cup is a different beast. No Indian team has won it since 1975. The real test will be handling pressure in the knockout stages, not just group games against lower-ranked sides. Can Craig Fulton's men sustain form when it matters most?
