He will oversee both men\u2019s and women\u2019s teams. We are in discussion with a chosen few and will make the appointment by mid-October,\u201d said Batra.<\/p>\n<p>Talking about the poor performance of the Indian hockey team at the recently concluded London Olympics, Batra said, \u201cat this point, I really don\u2019t know what exactly went wrong. From whatever I\u2019ve gathered from the coaches, players so far, I think the team just could not lift itself from the early losses. Perhaps, a good sports psychologist could have helped.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, <strong>The Times of India<\/strong> reports that Batra played down reported comments by a certain player who had blamed coach Michael Nobbs for the poor performance. Batra confirmed that both Nobbs and physio David John will continue their job.<\/p>\n<p>Batra said, \u201cInstead of blaming anybody, we are more interested in finding a solution. HI owns responsibility for letting the country down and hockey legend Dhyan Chand.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Batra added, \u201cInstead of 48 juniors and 48 seniors in the camps, we now propose to have 33 junior, 33 development players and 33 senior players.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>On Indian team playing the top teams of the world on a continuous basis, he said, \u201cIndia would also be playing at least three series against top teams like Australia, the Netherlands, Germany, Spain and England from next year onwards.
