MUMBAI: The much-awaited India-Pakistan hockey series is about to unfold. The two countries face each other in an eight match hockey series after four long years, of which the first four will be played in Pakistan and the rest in India. 

Ten Sports will live telecast the first four matches played in Pakistan.
 
 
Along with the live telecast, Ten Sports has lined up a slew of programmes including reruns of classic India-Pak clashes to coincide with the tour. An official release informs that the channel has roped in veteran hockey expert and IHF media manager Anupam Ghulati to provide in-depth analysis and commentary for the series.

Ten Sports has also signed a long-term agreement with Pakistan Hockey Federation to telecast the up-coming Champions Trophy to be played in Pakistan in December, adds the release.
 
 
Ten Sports VP programming Peter Hutton said "It's a great acquisition for us and further cements our relationship with quality international hockey. We've been thrilled with the response to the telecasts of international hockey events on Ten Sports, and are now looking forward to ending a great year of hockey on the channel with these premier events."
