Doing well in Champions Trophy is crucial: Sardar Singh

Bengaluru, May 3 (UNI) India men's team captain Sardar Singh feels that the upcoming Champions Trophy, slated to begin on June 10 in London, will be one of the key tournaments ahead of the Rio Olympics.
"Doing well against each of these teams is important for us as it will show where we stand in the lead-up to the Olympics. It will give us an opportunity to test the latest weapons (tactics) we have been working on in the camp," said Sardar, a day after the selection trials were held to pick the squad for London.
Singh also feels that the team could have performed better against Australia in both the league encounters and finals at the Azlan Shah tournament, which concluded recently and the Champions Trophy will help them access where they stand. "We had many chances where we could have converted into goals against Australia and we didn't. The Champions Trophy will give us an opportunity to correct those mistakes and assess where we need to further improve for the big Games," he said.
