Olympic Medal Gets Worn Out In Just Weeks, India Hockey Star Hardik Singh Says: "They Had One Job..."

The Indian hockey team has been on a slow but steady rise since winning the bronze medal at the Tokyo 2020 Games. At the 2024 Paris Olympics too, India played brilliantly till the semi-finals but faltered in the last four stage. However, India rose to the challenge in the bronze medal match to beat Spain 2-1.
