India’s best drag-flicker and rampant goal-scorer, Rupinder Pal Singh

Rupinder Pal Singh can easily be termed as one of the best drag-flick specialists in the world and also India’s serial goal-scorer for he never misses an opportunity to perform on the field.

The top-scorer for Delhi Waveriders at the 2016 Hockey India League, Rupinder played a significant role when India finished as runners-up at the Sultan Azlan Shah tournament and the Champions Trophy in London. However, the 26-year old really came into his own at the Asian Champions Trophy, when he netted 11 goals in the tournament including an important goal in the finals to defeat Pakistan 3-2 and clinch the gold.
