Netherlands Women’s Hockey Team Arrives In Bhubaneswar For FIH Pro League

Bhubaneswar: Netherlands Women’s Hockey Team has arrived in the city on Wednesday ahead of the double-header against hosts India in the FIH Hockey Pro League 2021-22.

The matches against India are scheduled to take place on April 8 and 9 at Kalinga Hockey Stadium, here.

The Olympic champions, Netherlands, were originally scheduled to play on February 19 and 20 but the matches had to be postponed following the visiting team’s concern over rise in COVID-19 cases in their country.

The Netherlands, World no.1, have so far played four matches in tournament. They beat Belgium 2-0 and 3-1 in October and November last year followed by back-to-back 1-0 and 2-2 (3-2 SO) wins against Spain in February this year.
