KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysia’s hockey coach Roelant Oltmans was not too pleased with his team’s penalty corners’ conversion rate in the first Test match against New Zealand at the National Hockey Stadium in Bukit Jalil.

Malaysia earned five penalty corners in the match yesterday but drag flickers Muhd Razie Abdul Rahim and Faizal Saari (pic) failed to get it right.
