HIL 2015: A dress rehearsal for semifinal

February 17, 2015 11:22 pm | Updated 11:22 pm IST - NEW DELHI:

With both teams having already qualified for the knockouts of the Hero Hockey India League, Delhi Waveriders’ last league match against Uttar Pradesh Wizards at the Major Dhyanchand National Stadium here on Wednesday will be more a contest to decide the semifinal line-up than anything else.

While Delhi, on 23 points, has no chance of moving above its current fourth spot even with a win, UP has 30 from nine games and can go top of the table with an outright victory. That would also make Wednesday’s game a rehearsal for the semifinal.
