King’s Cup 2019 | Narayan Das, Rowlin Borges released as Igor Stimac continues trimming : Reports
Igor Stimac’s scissors this time has seen the crucial names like Dhanpal Ganesh, Rowlin Borges, and Narayan Das as the coach reportedly trimmed the list in serarch of his perfect 23-man squad for the King’s Cup. Earlier, Stimac had cut off the likes of Redeem Tlang, Sumeet Passi and five others.
With just five days to go before India take on Curcacao in the King’s Cup in Thailand, Stimac has been a busy man building his ideal squad. The coach was appointed too late into the side and therefore has very little time to evaluate the talent pool available at his disposal.

According to Goal, the other players released are full backs Narayan Das and Anwar Ali, youngster Komal Thatal and centre half Salam Ranjan Singh. Among them, Ali has been released owing to an injury while the rest assumingly didn’t fit his style as of now.
