Junior Asia Cup: Araijeet Singh Hundal struck a brace of goals as the Indian junior men’s hockey team registered an 11-0 victory in their Men’s Junior Asia Cup 2024 campaign opener against Thailand here on Wednesday.

Hundal, who will feature for Team Gonasika in the upcoming HIL scored in the 2nd and 24th minutes and the Delhi SG Pipers’ Sourabh Anand Kushwaha (19’, 52’) and UP Rudras’ Gurjot Singh (18’, 45’) scored a brace each in the game. While Arshdeep Singh (8’), Sharda Nand Tiwari (10’) Dilraj Singh (21’), Rohit (29’) and Mukesh Toppo (59’) scored a goal each in the comprehensive victory for India.

India maintained control over the ball from the starting whistle and quickly found the back of the net. Hundal scored the first goal with a harrowing reverse shot from the left wing, following an incisive pass by Priyobarta Talem from the backline. India continued to apply constant pressure on Thailand, frequently foraying into the shooting circle with aerial passes to the wings.
