Premiere Hockey League: Veerans Defeat Sultans

Chennai Veerans took the opening match of the Premier Division in the Premier Hockey League.

Skipper Sinclair gave a good show of opportunism. The problem with Sultans was their midfield. They failed to function for the most important parts of the match. Most of the moves were from the defense.

Sultans' defense had to work hard to keep the Veerans away but after a point of time they cracked and let the advantage slip out of their hands.

Matches on Friday (5 Jan 2007):

Sher-e-Jalandhar vs. Chandigarh Dynamos
Bangalore Lions vs. Maratha Warriors.
