Another expected win for Indian women but they fumbled lot in penalty corners drill ... Indian coach Hawgood need to work on penalty corners drill with our team as in last two matches those will be very important ... Russia hold Japan in the full-time before losing in tie-break.

Indian men were lucky to beat gritty Irish team ... In this match our players lacked in coordination and looked tired Other hand the Irishmen displayed fine exhibition in defending ... In this match our set pieces ratio was poor, we managed to convert only 2 from 6 penalty corners ... Irish team also earned 6 penalty corners ... Again our forwarders failed to score after so many D penetrations by Sardara Singh and Mandeep Singh.
