IMPHAL, August 22: The Hockey Manipur today criticised the Indian Hockey team for leaving out Kh Kothajit from playing at the London Olympics, after the mid-fielder had played a pivotal role in the qualifying rounds, including Four Nationa Olympic Test at London, 21st Sultan Azlan Shah Cup and Olympic warm up tour of France and Spain.
