I still remember that day, we all were expecting Pakistan to win but at the same time, we were afraid of Bovelander and he made his presence felt in the final by scoring two goals. We literally were die-hard fan of hockey in 80s and 90s.
Sohail Abbas is a former captain of the Pakistan Hockey Team. He is the highest goal scorer in international field hockey with 348 international goals. A notable player of the field hockey game, he is widely regarded as the 'King of the drag flick'. Pakistan Junior team manager Samiullah Khan and coach Ayaz Mahmood were not convinced to include him for the 1997 World Cup staged in Milton Keynes - an underwhelming squad that failed to making it to the Junior World Cup semi-finals for the first time in the cup's 25-year history. Finally, he made his debut the following year on the national team and has since become arguably hockey's most prolific goalscorer of all time. Sohail, who struck 20 goals in 1998, was in terrific form in 1999 when Pakistan won the Azlan Shah Cup for the first time and got silver in Asia Cup. He was leading scorer in 8th Pakistan-India Series (10 goals), 9th Azlan Shah Cup (12 goals) and 5th Asia Cup (16 goals). Of 16 Asia Cup's goals, seven were against Sri La
