Experienced midfielder Sushila Chanu has been rested from India's 20-member squad for the upcoming women's Asian Champions Trophy (ACT) hockey tournament due to a suspected Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) injury.
Sushila, who led India at the Rio Olympics, was part of the Indian women's team that won a bronze medal at the Hangzhou Asian Games last week.
According to a Hockey India source, Sushila will soon consult a doctor to know the extent of the injury.
