After a 1-1 draw against a higher-ranked England side in their opening match at Women's FIH Hockey World Cup 2022, the Indian team will be high on confidence when they meet China for their second game.
In the match against England, India had bounced back from a one-goal deficit to share points with England, courtesy a goal by Vandana Katariya in the 28th minute of the game.
Notably, Rani Rampal has failed to make it to the Indian squad for the ongoing mega event due to fitness issue and it is Savita Punia who is leading the national side in her absence.
It is worth noting that both China and India are equal on points as the former team also played out a draw in its opening match.
