Why Amit Rohidas would not play for India vs Germany in the semi-final

Hockey

But India will lose Amit Rohidas, one of their main players, from their team. The defender was shown the red card for dangerous play in India’s quarter-final match against Great Britain after hitting an opposition player on the head with his stick.

Rohidas and India protested that he had no intention of hitting the player, but the umpires ruled that the defender’s stick was in an unnatural position which led to a dangerous situation.

India were dealt a further blow later when the FIH Technical Delegate handed Rohidas an additional one-match suspension for violation of the player conduct code ruling him out of the semi-final.
