Hockey Maharashtra (HM) registered a comfortable 6-0 win over Chhattisgarh Hockey to enter the final of the 3rd West Zone Hockey India sub-junior boys' national championship at the MHA-Mahindra Stadium here yesterday. However, the victory was overshadowed by the news of one of the Chhattisgarh players having been found over-age.

Strangely, Chhattisgarh’s Manish Yadav, was found overage in the same tournament in 2011, but returned here again, played three matches and even scored seven goals (four vs Goans Hockey & three vs Hockey Gujarat) before HM lodged a protest yesterday.
