Hockey India chief slams Ind-Aus final umpires
Hockey India President Narinder Dhruv Batra criticized the umpiring in the Champions Trophy final after Australia defeated India 3-1 in a controversial penalty shootout. Umpires allowed Australian player Daniel Beale to retake his shot, after his first attempt was blocked by Indian goalkeeper by PR Sreejesh. “This is the worst example of careless and irresponsible umpiring," said Batra.
