New Delhi, Jan 17 (IANS) Hockey India (HI) secretary general Narinder Batra said here Friday that he wants to see his team finish in the top-4 at the 2018 World Cup.
Asked about India’s performance at the ongoing Hockey World League Final here, Batra said that he does not want to comment on the day-to-day performance of the team, rather he would like to concentrate on the long-term aim.
“I don’t judge our team’s performance based on just one match or on a day-to-day basis. Our boys are fit enough to play 140 minutes. We have a long-term aim and that is to finish in the top-4 in the 2018 World Cup,” Batra said.
