India’s men’s team put on heartening performances at the start of the year but in came the Covid-19 pandemic to halt their steady but remarkable progress en route to the postponed 2020 Tokyo Olympics which will now be held from July 23 to August 8, 2021. The team made a creditable start to their FIH Pro League campaign but it all came to a screeching halt as the threat from the corona virus that has claimed 1.75 million lives worldwide stifled every human pursuit. In a year ravaged by Covid-19, the men’s team, however, can still look back with a degree of satisfaction. Going into 2021, India are ranked No. 4, behind Belgium, Australia and Netherlands in that order.
