Paris: Odisha\u2019s defender Amit Rohidas has been suspended for one match at the Paris 2024 Olympics, missing India\u2019s semifinal against Germany on Tuesday. The suspension follows a red card received during the quarter-final match against Great Britain. Hockey India has filed an appeal with the FIH Jury Bench over umpiring concerns.<\/p>\n
\u201cAmit Rohidas was suspended for one match for a breach of the FIH Code of Conduct which occurred during the India vs Great Britain match on August 4,\u201d the International Hockey Federation said in a statement.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe suspension affects match No. 35 (India\u2019s semi-final match against Germany), where Amit Rohidas will not participate and India will play with a squad of 15 players only,\u201d it added.<\/p>\n
In response, Hockey India have filed an appeal with the FIH Jury Bench, raising the issue.<\/p>\n
During the second quarter of the quarterfinals match against Great Britain on Sunday, 31-year-old defender accidentally struck Calnan\u2019s face with his hockey stick. Although the on-field referee did not initially deem it a serious offense, a video referral upgraded the decision to a red card. The defender was then sent off the pitch for almost 40 minutes from the final hooter.<\/p>\n
Hockey India, however, has officially raised concerns about the quality of umpiring following the red card to Amit, following the match.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis is to inform you that Hockey India has officially raised concerns about the quality of umpiring and decision-making in the ongoing Paris Olympic Games 2024 (Men\u2019s tournament). The complaint focuses on a critical match between India and Great Britain, where several inconsistencies in officiating potentially influenced the game\u2019s outcome,\u201d Hockey India said on Sunday.<\/p>\n
\u201cInconsistent video umpire reviews, particularly regarding the red card decision for an Indian player, which has eroded trust in the video review system,\u201d it added.<\/p>\n
Rohidas was shown a red card after the video umpire made a subjective decision that the stick was a deliberate attempt to hurt a player by raising the stick. Many observers felt that Rohidas\u2019s action was part of his biomechanical movement and not deliberate.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
