About Tushar Khandker:
Belonging to a family which has produced several players of national and international fame, the sport for this Jhansi player was a natural path to be marched on.
Khandekar represented India in the junior level and such was the impact of his play that there was no other way but a passage straight into the national team, for him.
His strikes have repeatedly helped the Indian team overpower opponents and advance in international tournaments. Now a veteran in the team, Khadekar will not be awed by the grandeur of the Olympics since he has represented his country on such tournaments on several occassions in the past.
Tushar Khandker's career highlights:
# Has over 200 international caps
# His strike against South Korea helped India claim the bronze medal in the 2010 Asian Games
