Dhyan Chand who was called the "Wizard of Hockey" played as though the ball was struck to the stick!So muh so, officials during one of his travels broke his hockey stick while looking for magnets inside!
Dhyan chand one of the best hockey players to date, has a statue of his in vienna, built by a sports club there.
Dhanraj Pillay,ace hockey player is the only Indian to have played in 4 Olymics, 4 world cups, 4 champions Trophies, 4 Asian Games and 4 Asia Cups.
