New Delhi, 15 January 2015: The defending champions Delhi Waveriders’ squad was seen working hard on the field in order to refine their strengths and work on their weaknesses, as the team starts with its training sessions from today.
The practice session saw some smiles and cheers within the team as both domestic and foreign players come together once again with one defined aim of retaining the title of the Hero Hockey India League. Being led by the very experienced Indian skipper Sardar Singh, the team is upbeat and ready to practice and learn different tactics of the game to be incorporated in the upcoming matches against their opponents.
Speaking after the practice sessions, Delhi Waveriders’ Captain Sardar Singh said, “We are happy to be back together as a team once again and all the players in the team are pretty comfortable with each other. Retaining the title is our main aim in the tournament but at the same time it is going to be really tough as all the teams participating in the league are equally good and thus we cannot underestimate any of them. Dabang Mumbai is a team to look for this League as they are new and their strategies on the field might throw some surprises. Delhi Waveriders are focussed in giving our best throughout the tournament and aim at yielding favourable results.”
Delhi Waveriders will take on the Uttar Pradesh Wizards in Lucknow on 23rd January 2015 at 15:00 HRS (IST).
