KARACHI: The Pakistan Hockey Federation (PHF) has made three changes in the team for the upcoming Korean Test series in Seoul, for which the team will depart on Friday.
The PHF dropped full-back Syed Kashif Shah, goalkeeper Amjad Ali and forward Rizwan Ali and replaced them with Nawaz Ali, Mazhar Abbas and Kashif Ali respectively.
Skipper Muhammad Imran said that the changes will help Pakistan determine the best team for the 2016 Rio Olympic qualification round scheduled for June in Belgium. “The players who have been dropped have performed well but not up to the expectations of the management, while the new players are in good form and will help us decide the best team for the qualifiers,” he told The Express Tribune.
