India's exceptional campaign at the Asian Champions Trophy 2024
In the last few years, India has progressed well as a Hockey side. With the current form, India is way ahead of all the Asian sides. About 4-5 years back, teams like South Korea, Japan, Malaysia, and Pakistan could beat India on their day. However, India has reached a different level in Hockey since the Tokyo Olympics 2021.
In the last few years, India has had a much better record than Pakistan. They have won 14 of the last 16 matches against Pakistan. In the Asian Champions Trophy, India has been ruthless in decimating their opponents for fun. India has claimed way too easy wins over China, Japan, Malaysia, and South Korea.
India started their campaign on a high by beating China 3-0. They then decimated Japan 5-1 and established themselves at the top of the points table. The defending champion hammered the runner-ups of the previous edition, Malaysia, by 8-1. India beat South Korea in their last game by 3-1. Beating Pakistan would extend India's winning streak to 6 wins in a row.
