Great to see hockey growing in smaller states like Dadra & Nagar Haveli. That 6-1 victory was clinical! But why no live streaming for such important matches?

Good tournament but need better coverage. Only getting score updates, no match highlights or player interviews. Hockey India should improve digital presence.
