IN a first, five players hailing from Jharkhand's Simdega district, including Captain Salima Tete, have made it to the Indian Women's Hockey team.
But that's not all; in another first, two sisters from Jharkhand, Salima Tete and Mahima Tete, will be playing alongside each other in the national team.
The team will be led by Salima Tete, the formidable midfielder who has been named Captain, while her younger sister, Mahima, also a midfielder, has earned her debut place in the squad, sparking jubilations across the state and Simdega in particular.
Her selection marks a significant representation from a region known for its grassroots hockey talent.
