Kuala Lumpur, Sept 4: The HEAD coach of the Australian women8217;s hockey team has branded the Commonwealth Games pitch as dangerous. And a furious Ric Charlseworth claimed it could cost his team the gold medal.
quot;It is not up to standard and not only is it dangerous, but it is also unfair,quot; fumed Charlesworth after watching his squad train on the artificial turf at the university complex at Pantai.
The 1998 world cup victors are strongly tipped to take the gold here. The 46-year-old Charlesworthnow plans to urge the organisers to switch the matches to the multi-million dollar hockey stadium that will be used for the men8217;s tournament.
