NEW DELHI: India on Tuesday named incumbent Manpreet Singh as the skipper of the men's hockey team for the upcoming Tokyo Olympics where he will have two deputies in defenders Birendra Lakra and Harmanpreet Singh.
India had announced a 16-member team for the showpiece event last week but refrained from naming the team's leadership group.
...I am humbled to have this opportunity of representing India at the Olympics for the third time, this time as team Captain. It is a very proud moment for me to be given this charge, Manpreet said in a statement issued by Hockey India.
