Hockey India (HI) has called a meeting of the selectors and the coaches to discuss the issue of Sandeep Singh and Sardara Singh leaving the ongoing national camp in Bangalore for the Asian Champions Trophy, reportedly because of a rift within the team management.
HI secretary general Narinder Batra said yesterday the two players have given their reasons of leaving the camp in an e-mail.
"They have sent a mail explaining the reasons. I cannot reveal the contents at this moment. We won't take this matter lightly. It is a serious disciplinary issue because it is the third time they have repeated such an offence. The disciplinary committee headed by Pargat Singh is looking into the matter and we have called a meeting on Aug 27 where the selectors and coaches will be present to discuss the issue," Batra said.
