A bustling Major Dhyan Chand Stadium in New Delhi will take centerstage for the next couple of days when hockey returns to its hallowed turf as India host World champions Germany for a bilateral series. This venue, once termed as the ‘temple of Indian hockey’, has waited nearly 10 years to play host to an international fixture.
An India-Germany clash on the hockey field has the knack of producing thrillers. The most recent offering was at the Paris Olympics where the Germans prevailed 3-2 in a pulsating semifinal. Three years ago, it was an Indian team that defeated Germany 5-4 for their first-ever Olympic medal in over four decades. Ledger balanced? For the time being.
On Wednesday afternoon, the two teams will renew their fierce rivalry with Germany – the current world champions and Olympic silver medalists – aiming to improve their recent domination over India.
