Kuantan (Malaysia): India captain PR Sreejesh is keen that his players play it cool when the Asian Champions Trophy&rsquo;s key encounter against arch sub-continental hockey rivals Pakistan comes up tomorrow.
Seeking to cool the nerves of his players, Sreejesh says the Indian team has set sights on winning the Asian Champions Trophy title and the league fixture against Pakistan is just one of those games.
&ldquo;Pakistan is just one of the teams in the tournament. We are right now looking for three points from today&rsquo;s match against South Korea,&rdquo; said Sreejesh as prepares for two key matches against South Korea and Pakistan on successive days. &ldquo;Pressure could build up on the players from back home, so I have advised the players to focus on the match here and try to stay away even from the social media,&rdquo; Sreejesh said as he downplayed the political tension between the two countries.
However, Sreejesh had made a contrasting comment following the Uri terror attack in September. &ldquo;India-Pakistan match brings a lot of excitement to the table. We want to give hundred per cent. We don&rsquo;t want to disappoint our soldiers by losing, especially when they sacrifice their lives at the borders,&rdquo; Sreejesh said.
