ISLAMABAD: The National Assembly’s Standing Committee on Sport (NASCS) will grill the Pakistan Hockey Federation (PHF) officials and members of the national team following the Pakistan’s poor performance at the FIH Hockey World Cup in New Delhi.

“We will summon PHF officials and players later this month to grill them on the World Cup debacle,” NASCS Chairman Jamshed Dasti told a local television channel on Tuesday.

“We are very disappointed with the team's performance at the World Cup and believe that some major changes should be made.”

Meanwhile, former Pakistan hockey captains criticised PHF Secretary Asif Bajwa, calling him the reason behind the team's lacklustre performance.

Pakistan ended their group matches with a loss against Australia on Monday.
