The present hockey team has got so many experienced players. There skills are wonderful but they lacked in stamina and are note able to match the pace of the game for full 70 minutes. This is the reason why we starts so well in any international match whether against Australia/Holland or Germany but found it hard in the end. To overcome this problem, coach should prepare fresh young talent to take place some of the seniors and then give them proper time to groom.
We should stand up and support our Hockey team as they are not only battling against Australian team but also against the constant Criticism at home.The thing which goes up also has to come down.Show Ric Charleworth that we can beat them.
Ric Charlsworth know how exactly we (India) play hockey and now hes coaching the Australian development squad. We sacked him and now his way of getting back is beating us on the hockey field

How will 'attention from public'regain the strength?? We concede 5 goals to a 2nd string Aussie team.Pathetic.We are sh*t at defending and learn nothing from millions of defeats.
