New Delhi, Mar 2 (ANI): A final decision would be taken today on Indian striker Shivendra Singh, who has been suspended for three-matches of the Hockey World Cup for deliberately hitting a Pakistani player in the first match that India won at the Major Dhyan Chand National stadium on Sunday.
India's Hockey World Cup campaign received a setback on Monday after center forward Shivendra Singh, who scored the first goal for India in its match against Pakistan in the Hockey World Cup, was banned for three matches.
Singh has also been charged for launching a verbal battle and commenting on Pakistani players during the match.
The Indian frontline led by Prabhjot Singh, Shivendra Singh and Rajpal Singh spread havoc in Pakistani ranks with their fast-paced interchanges as Team India registered an emphatic 4-1 win on Sunday.
Team India has filed a petition against Singh's suspension. (ANI)
