Road to Rio 2016: 5 specialists to drag-flick for India

Harmanpreet and Rupinder – the two specialists who fired for India at the Sultan Azlan Shah Cup 2016

#4 Jasjit Singh Kular

Punjab forward Jasjit Singh Kular doubles up as an effective drag-flicker too

A versatile member of the Indian team, Jasjit Singh Kular has donned multiple hats to fulfil the requirements of his coach.

A forward who plays in midfield as well as in defence on being instructed, it is hardly a surprise that he doubles up as a handy drag-flicking option too.

His stature may not be along the lines of his burly counterparts Rupinder Pal and VR Raghunath, but his quick feet and anticipatory skills provide a combo rivals are often wary of. The go-to guy for head coach Roelant Oltmans, Jasjit appears likely to board the Olympic wagon for the multifarious values he adds to the side, today.
