Hockey India League: Akashdeep Singh Excited to Play Again With Sardar Singh, Simon Child



New Delhi: After a successful year where he played crucial roles in helping India notch up some memorable performances, young and talented striker Akashdeep Singh is now hoping to produce similar sort of performance for defending champions Delhi Waveriders in the 2015 Hockey India League (HIL) starting Jan 22.


The 20-year-old, who idolises Indian skipper Sardar Singh, Thursday said he is lucky to play under the Indian centre-half and is looking forward to once again share the dressing room with him.


"It has been a great prospect to play under Sardar's leadership and I am one of those lucky ones to not only play under his guidance in the Indian Men team but even in the Hockey India League where we are with Delhi Waveriders," said Akashdeep.


"Watching him play as well as discussing the game with him has helped me to learn a few tricks of the trade and has enhanced my game immensely. He inspires me and many others to become the player we want to be and make a difference to the game when on the field.
