Women’s hockey team vice-captain Savita Punia believes it is time India replicates its success at the Asian-level in big-ticket events including the upcoming Tokyo Olympics. “We have achieved good results at Asian-level tournaments. Playing well in these events has given the team, particularly youngsters, a sense of what it really takes to do well at big tournaments. Now, I feel we are ready for bigger feats,” said Savita.
