PETALING JAYA: National coach A. Arulselvaraj will not have his trusted deputy Amin Rahim by his side for the World Cup campaign due to the latter’s commitment to prepare the junior squad for the upcoming Junior Asia Cup.

Amin, who is also the Speedy Tigers’ penalty corner coach, has been helping Razie Rahim, Faizal Saari, Najmi Farizal Jazlan, Aminuddin Zain and several players to improve their conversions.
