Mohd Azrai Aizad Abu Kamal, who has been training with the national team for more than a month, certainly has what it takes to be ruthless in front of goal. In the Malaysia Hockey League earlier this year, he plundered 11 goals for Tenaga Nasional and all of them from the shooting circle. Only 21, Azrai impressed former national coach Roelant Oltmans to be selected in the national team and has now gained the attention of newly minted coach S. Arul Selvaraj. Although Arul took over only a week ago, Azrai already sees the difference in the squad. "I have learnt lots of things. How to make quick passes and to com- municate better with your team- mates," said Azrai, who will turn out for Perak in the Razak Cup from Sept 18 to 26. "The players feel comfortable under coach Arul because we can interact openly." Azrai added that he is beginning to gel with the veteran forwards especially Tengku Ahmad Tajuddin Tengku Ahmad Jalil. "Initially, there was some nerv- ousness. But after playing in the league with them and interacting during national call-ups, I'm feeling much better.
