BHUBANESWAR:
At a time when diplomatic relations between India and Pakistan have hit rock
bottom, the two hockey teams will clash against each other at the high-voltage
Champions Trophy semi-final at the Kalinga Stadium here on Saturday.
There has been no
bilateral series between the two countries in any sport for a long time, and
the last time the hockey teams met on Indian soil was in the 2010 Commonwealth
Games, when India won 7-4. The match also holds special significance for
Bhubaneswar, which was off the international sports map for years.
