NEW DELHI: IOA President Narinder Batra, who also heads the International Hockey Federation, on Tuesday termed the Indian men's hockey team's performance in recent tournaments as "unacceptable" and asked the national federation to explain the reasons behind it.
In a strongly-worded communication to Hockey India (HI) President Gyanendro Ningombam, Batra said he has serious concerns about the team's performance after the historic bronze in Tokyo Olympics last year.
