#2 Rupinder Pal Singh needs to raise his consistency game
Trending
After sitting out the Champions Trophy in the face of burnout concerns, ace defender Rupinder Pal Singh returned to the Indian lineup to perform in the capacity of a fullback who would double up as a lethal drag-flicker for his side in Valencia.
Filling in the boots of a drag-flicker, he did land himself among the goals but failed miserably in his primary duties of a defender. Multiple lapses and unforced giveaways later, his stood out as the poorest performance at the Indian backline.
Although his Rio chances wouldn’t be affected by his Six Nations’ showing, it's for the sake of India's podium chances at the approaching Olympics that Rupinder lifts his consistency quotient in national colours at the earliest.
