National Hockey Centre: The Indian junior women’s hockey team won its second consecutive match on its tour of Australia, when it defeated local club Canberra Chill 3-1, at the National Hockey Centre, Canberra. For India, the goals came from Ishika (13’, 39’) and Sonam (27’).

India went a goal down in the first quarter when Naomi Evans (11’) converted a penalty corner for the hosts, but bounced back within the next couple of minutes, with a goal from Ishika (13’), which also came off a penalty corner.

Locked at 1-1, the two teams continued to hunt for the next goal, and it was India who got their noses out in front, just before half time, as Sonam (27’) scored a field goal, making it 2-1.
