Jugraj Singh: India's New Hockey Star Who Sold Water Bottles At Attari Border

Jugraj Singh emerged as the unlikely hero for the Indian men's hockey team as he scored the winner against China in the Asian Champions Trophy 2024 final. There was no goal in the first three quarters of the summit clash but Jugraj was able to find the back of the net in the 51st minute to guide his side to a record-extending fifth title.
