Hockey: China want Pakistan to tour in April

KARACHI: China coach Li Gaochao described his team’s recently-concluded tour of Pakistan as ‘memorable’ and extended an invitation to the Pakistan Hockey Federation to send the team for a Test series in April.

“Our team learned a great deal during the four-match series with Pakistan and we’re going back to China very satisfied,” said Gaochao. “Pakistan are among the top hockey teams and have some world-class players. Our youngsters improved by playing alongside such opposition.”
