Pakistani players and officials have been told to keep their emotions in check when they face- off with arch-rivals India in the Asian Champions Trophy match at Kuantan in Malaysia on Monday. The official said that after the Champions Trophy semifinal fiasco in December 2014, the PHF didn’t want more tensions with the Indian hockey board. “Imran will be missed as he has been a key factor in recent matches against India,” former Olympian Islahuddin Siddiqui said. Monday’s fixture is the 166th international match between the two countries. Read | Pak to send team for junior hockey World Cup subject to govt clearance
