India-Great Britain hockey matches postponed due to Covid-19 pandemic

<p>
<strong>The FIH Hockey Pro League matches between Great Britain and India, scheduled on May 8-9, have been postponed after the recent decision by the UK Government to add India to the red list of countries due to the current status of the Covid-19 pandemic. International hockey federation, Hockey India and Great Britain Hockey are monitoring the evolution of the situation in the hope of rearranging these matches at a later date.</strong></p>
<p>
India will still travel to Europe in May to play FIH Hockey Pro League matches against Spain (15-16 May) and Germany (22-23 May) while Great Britain will host Germany (12-13 May), USA (Women, 22-23 May) and Spain (Men, 22-23 May).</p>
<p>
On a positive note, Australia and New Zealand are continuing their efforts to find a date for the matches between them following the announcement of a trans-Tasman travel bubble this week.</p>
