Imran Butt, the former goalkeeper and international coach of Pakistan Hockey Team, says that the Hockey Federation is playing a game of likes and dislikes in the field of goalkeeping.
Talking about the negligence of the PHF administration in the field of goalkeeping, he has said that apparently the decisions of the federation do not seem to improve the field of goalkeeping.
Imran Butt expressed his surprise at the shortlisting of goalkeepers in the Asian Champions Trophy camp.
He said that it makes no sense to keep only 3 goalkeepers before the final selection, currently the federation is once again relying on Abdullah Ishtiaq, which is a surprise to him.
The former goalkeeper said that Waqar Ahmed is a better choice in every respect but the federation is constantly ignoring him.
Imran Butt added that if Abdullah Ishtiaq is such a good goalkeeper, then he should be allowed in the matches, but Azlan Shah and in South Africa, he sat out for a long time.
He said that with Akmal Hussain, it seems that Abdullah Ishtiaq, who will sit out this time too, will go to the Asian Champions Trophy.
Imran Butt added that Ali Raza did good goalkeeping in the Junior Asia Cup, but it is too early to call him to the camp at this time.
