It was indeed a very big achievement for India hockey captain Harjeet Singh when he led the side to victory in the junior World Cup final on Sunday.


Harjeet was so passionate about the win that he not only took the trophy to bed, but also enjoyed sound sleep with it. The Son of a truck driver from Kurali in Mohali district of Punjab, Singh is an idol for many youngsters. Yesterday, the picture of him posted on Twitter was aptly captioned: "India #JuniorHockeyWorldCup captain Harjeet Singh cannot part with the trophy. Wake up boy, it's not a dream anymore @TheHockeyIndia."
