Both Gurjant Singh and Simranjit Singh are known by their cousins. Both learned hockey side-by-side. Both were members of the Indian team that won the Junior Hockey World Cup. Simranjeet remained mostly in the senior team while Gurjant kept fighting to make his mark.

Gurjant has now scored goals in both FIH Pro League matches against the Netherlands here. In the first match, he scored a goal in 13 seconds and became the fastest Indian to score a goal. He explains, "I improved the game on the advice of Chief Coach Graham Reid and managed to make a comeback to the senior team." Our Chief Coach Graham Reid has given us the mantra to give us full strength to win even after not losing courage. We are all following his mantra. We have to do consistently better against the top teams.

Teams are afraid of retaliatory attacks by the Indian team: It is being said that the Gurjant said, 'Tokyo Olympics is very close and I am focusing on making my place in the senior team by consistently doing well in the Pro League matches. I am eyeing a good performance first against World Cup champions Belgium and then No. 1 team Australia.' Today, teams around the world are afraid of the Indian team's counter-attacks.
