NEW DELHI: The bronze medal in the recently-held Hockey World League
(HWL) Final notwithstanding, India dropped a place to the seventh
position in the latest International Hockey Federation (FIH) for men.
Only last month, the Indian men's hockey team jumped two places to occupy sixth place in the the FIH rankings on the back of its good showing in the the Hockey World League Semi-Finals. World champions Australia, the winners of HWL Final in Raipur earlier this month, continue to occupy the top spot ahead of second placed Netherlands and Germany.
With England (Great Britain) remaining in fourth, Belgium leapfrogged Argentina (6) and India into fifth place as they finished runners up at the HWL Final in Raipur.
