FIH Hockey Pro League: After a 2-2 draw, England beat India in shootout to win the bonus point in their FIH Hockey Pro League (Women) match at the Kalinga Hockey Stadium in Bhubaneswar on Sunday.

Navneet Kaur (53’) and Rutaja Dadaso Pisal (57’) scored for India while Paige Gillot (40’) and Tessa Howard (56’) found the net for England. It was an evening to remember for Rutaja as she scored on her senior international debut to draw the game for India.

The first quarter saw good chances from both sides but no one could break the deadlock. England were dominant with the possession and created good chances in the shooting circle while India were forced to play on the back foot. England won two penalty corners in the ninth and 11th minute respectively but Savita did well in goal throughout the quarter to keep the scores level.
