New Delhi [India], August 25 (ANI): The Indian Women's Hockey Team made history at the recently-concluded Birmingham 2022 Commonwealth Games after clinching the bronze medal, their first CWG Medal after 16 years.
The 27-year-old Midfielder Nisha, who was absolutely thrilled to be a part of the Bronze medal-winning team, expressed the importance of the medal for the team and for her career.
"This CWG medal will always be special to me as I have always dreamed of being part of medal-winning teams at prestigious tournaments. We have always looked to play our best hockey at the Olympics and Commonwealth Games and we are glad to have put in a great performance in Birmingham. The team has grown from strength to strength since I joined the side in 2019 and hopefully, we keep evolving as a team in the future."
Nisha also said that the CWG medal is a huge confidence booster for her, "I have certainly gained a lot of confidence after CWG. I feel blessed to have been part of a fantastic experience and we gelled as a team very well during the competition. It was very rewarding for me to contribute to the team's success and I will keep working hard in order to help the team do even better in the upcoming tournament."
