Sunil Chhetri Requests to Be Excused from King's Cup in Thailand

Indian football team captain Sunil Chhetri has requested to be excused from the King's Cup in Thailand

Chhetri's wife is due to give birth around the same time, and he said that he would like to stay back in India to be with her.

"I would request the coach not to include me in the King's Cup squad," Chhetri said

Chhetri is the all-time leading scorer for the Indian national team, and he is considered to be one of the best players in Asia

He has been a key member of the Indian team for many years, and his absence from the King's Cup would be a major blow.

However, Chhetri's decision is understandable, and it is clear that he is putting his family first.

The Indian football team has a number of other talented players, and should be able to compete in the King's Cup without Chhetri.
