India hit the ground running versus China

NEW DELHI: It was never really going to be much of a challenge. The lowest-ranked team in the tournament (world No.25), returning to international competition after a long break, facing Olympic bronze medallists first up, China were completely outplayed by the hosts as the Indian men's hockey team got off to a flying start with a 7-2 victory in their Asian Champions Trophy opener.

The picture was clear by the end of the first quarter of where the match was heading as the Harmanpreet Singh-led outfit were 3-0 up, showcasing their dominance against China, who clearly struggled by the end of the contest with the heat and humidity taking its toll on the young team with many of the players suffering cramps in the last quarter.
