Slight change in Pakistan, India series
By Our Sports Correspondent
LAHORE, Sept 9: A slight change has been made in the schedule of Pakistan-India hockey series second leg to be played in India from Oct 4 to 10.
The first match in India will be played in New Delhi on Oct 4 instead of Chandigarh which will now host the second match on Oct 6. Amritsar and Hyderabad will host the third match on Oct 8 and fourth on Oct 10 respectively.
The four matches in Pakistan will be played at Hockey Club of Pakistan, Karachi, on Sept 24, General Musa Stadium, Quetta on Sept 27, Lala Ayub Stadium, Peshawar on Sept 29 and National Hockey Stadium, Lahore on Oct 1.
Pakistan Hockey Federation (PHF) said entry in the stadiums would be free for public but for VIP enclosures it will be through invitation cards. Olympians, international hockey players and other dignitaries would be issued invitation passes. Meanwhile, a PHF spokesman claimed National Hockey Stadium would be completed by Sept 25 before the Oct 1 match.
