Atleast now the hockey federation should come up and give some justice to the Indian people as well as to the versatile player named Dhanraj because his patriotism for the game and for his country he has time and again shown it in the ground but somehow it was never seen by the people of this country not the officials of the Hockey federation so guys tuck up and give him the chance to prove and what Shahid says is true he should be given a free hand and time not just one or two games.
Achievements: Best Forward of 1980 Champions Trophy Gold medal in 1980 Moscow Olympic Games Member of Asian All-Star team in 1986 Arjuna Award in 1980-81 Padma Shri in 1986
Indian Hockey need Dhanraj's service but IHF need to give him longer time to work with Indian team. May be for next 3/4 years no matter what ever the result come during this period.

Mohammad Shahid was India Captain in late 90's. Pargat singh/ Jasbir Singh have played under him.
Then Pargat took over and finally Dhanraj played under Pargat. There is a gap of 8-9 yrs from the time Shahid represented India and Dhanraj represented India.

Shup up and think before you write anything. Shahid is best dribble player and Pragat singh is best defender India has produces in last 50-60 years.

Philo has a point. Shahid was the best player in my opinion, but then all his dribbling was to no avail it didn't fetch that many goals
HE SHOULD NOT ONLY BE GIVEN THE RESPONSIBILITY TO COACH THE NATIONAL HOCKEY TEAM , BUT ALSO BE GIVEN ENOUGH TIME ( 2 TO 3 YEARS ) IRRESPECTIVE OF RESULTS AND FREE HAND IN SELECTION.( SO THAT NO MORE ADAM SINCLAIRES HAPPEN ).HOPE EMCURE PHARMA CONTINUES TO SUPPORT INDIAN HOCKEY ,LET US PUNE CONNECTIONS MAY BRING GOOD FORTUNES FOR HOCKEY.
