Rani misses out as India name tried and tested squad for women's hockey World Cup
Rani Rampal, who is yet to regain full fitness, did not find a place in the Indian team for the next month's FIH World Cup as Hockey India announced an 18-member squad on Tuesday. Rani, who led the Indian women to the historic fourth-place finish at the Tokyo Olympics, was picked for the recent FIH Pro League matches in Belgium and Netherlands after recovering from a hamstring injury. She didn't feature in the first four games of the side's European leg of Pro League, raising doubts about her full fitness.
