For the uninitiated, team India won the FIH Series Final in Hiroshima last Sunday, thrashing the hosts Japan 3-1 in the encounter.
This was a great achievement for a lot of reasons. In the run-up to the final, the team qualified for the Olympics by entering the semi-final, which it comfortably won 4-2.
Combined team effort helped us perform well throughout this tournament and win finals against Japan in the #FIHSeriesFinals Thanks to our coaches, support staff @TheHockeyIndia @Media_SAI for their guidance and continuous support. Looking forward to working more hard. pic.twitter.com/3KmlwYBzrb
