KARACHI: Around sixty players reported on the first day of the national senior hockey team’s training camp here at the Edhi hockey stadium on Friday.
The head coach Khwaja Junaid told ‘The News’ that goal keeper Imran Butt could not join the camp due to injury, while Umar Hamidi was permitted to miss the camp for exams.
