NEW DELHI: Amit Rohidas has been a pillar of strength in defence for Indian hockey. One of the finest rushers in the world, his interception skills has seen the team defending menacing drag-flicks from opponents.
He was a key member of the team which won the bronze medal at the Tokyo Olympics, silver at Birmingham 2022 CWG and an impressive gold at Hangzhou 2022 Asian Games. Rohidas again played an crucial part in the team winning the bronze medal at the Paris Games, but for the semifinal against Germany. Rohidas had to sit out of this marquee match following his controversial suspension by the International Hockey Federation (FIH).
