ROURKELA: It was a dream day for the four Australian hockey players who made their senior debut during their FIH Pro League game against Germany at Birsa Munda Hockey Stadium here on Saturday.
Among them was Anand Gupte, whose father Nitin is originally from Pune but has been staying Down Under for almost 30 years, and he couldn’t be happier having achieved his dream of finally playing for Australia, and that too in front of a massive crowd.
