'Beating AUS to CWG gold was our target': Harmanpreet Singh opens up on Indian hockey's triumphs in 2024 and more

Hindustan Times  

It has been a busy year for Harmanpreet Singh and the Indian men's hockey team. He scored a whopping 10 goals and was the top scorer at Paris 2024 as India won medals at consecutive Olympcis for the first time since 1972. India then followed that up by dominating the 2024 Asian Champions Trophy and Harmanpreet's status as the biggest name in the men's sport in the country was cemented by the fact that he was bought by Soorma Hockey Club of his native Punjab for INR 78 lakh during the Hockey India League auction, the highest for any player. It would obviously be different to play for these league teams compared to playing for your domestic side or your national side, especially because you will be playing with foreign players.
