The Indian Junior Men: The Indian Junior Men’s Hockey Team opened their Sultan of Johor Cup 2025 campaign with a well-deserved 3-2 win over Great Britain at the Taman Daya Hockey Stadium in Johor Bahru, Malaysia, on Saturday.

Captain Rohit (45+', 52') and Ravneet Singh (23') were the goalscorers for India while Michael Royden (26') and Kaden Draysey (46') scored for Great Britain.

The first quarter saw both sides play an entertaining end-to-end brand of hockey, however neither team could break the deadlock. In the 13th minute India received their first penalty corner of the day but they were stopped by the Great Britain rushers. India showed great attacking intent with multiple circle entries and good attempts on goal but Great Britain too were resilient in their defending.
