New Delhi, April
2, 2015: Post showcasing a high voltage
play in the FIH World League Round 2, Deepika is excited to play the Hawke’s
Bay Cup which is scheduled to start from 11th April 2015. Working on
her defence alongwith Monika, Deep Grace Ekka, Sushila Chanu and Sunita Lakra,
she is positive of tackling the opponents with ease and confidence. The
team will be meeting China
on their opening game on the 11th April 2015 wherein they will be
looking at starting the tournament with a win.
Speaking on the tournament, Deepika said “We are yet again confident of
putting up a great show. I am excited and look forward to the upcoming
challenge. I am awaiting for our clashes with China
and Australia.
They will be tough opponents and I am excited to play against them. Playing
against teams who are stronger than you always makes you give that extra
in the game and that’s what excites me about these matches. Also with a strong
defence line, I am confident we will not allow the opponents to break our
defence chain easily.”
The preparatory camp, which commenced on 22nd March and will conclude on 7th
April with the players working hard on their game as they understand that
this tournament is important before they play the Hockey World League
Semi-Final, Belgium in June this year.
