  "account": "India began their Men's Hockey World Cup campaign on their 80th Independence Day against Wales, as they aim to make a strong start. The Indian hockey team has only won the World Cup once, back in 1975, and has made the final four only three times, lastly in 1975 as well. Their hopes now lie in the hands of captain Harmanpreet Singh, who has been focusing on improving his drag-flick techniques, short sprints for mobility, and strengthening lower back, shoulders, and arms. The first match between India and Wales is set to kick off, with the Indian team hoping to turn the page and forget the distraction caused by changing their jersey color from blue to saffron, the colors they won medals in at the last two Olympics.",
