Former goalkeeper PR Sreejesh has publicly demanded accountability after both the Indian men's and women's hockey teams failed to reach the World Cup semi-finals.
The men's team suffered losses of 1-3 to the Netherlands and 3-5 to Argentina, while the women's team was eliminated after a goalless draw against Australia.
Sreejesh criticized the tendency to use the upcoming Asian Games as a distraction from poor World Cup performances, while Viren Rasquinha urged serious introspection regarding fitness and selection.
