Match Preview
India enters the match after a mixed performance in the Super 4s stage, drawing their opening match against Korea 2-2. However, they bounced back strongly with a 4-1 victory over Malaysia. China, on the other hand, secured a 3-0 win against Korea in their Super 4s match. In their previous encounter in the tournament, India narrowly defeated China 4-3.
A win against China would guarantee India a spot in the final, as no other team would be able to reach 7 points. Even a draw may be sufficient to secure a place in the title clash. China must win against India to qualify for the final, but a draw could also be enough if the Malaysia vs Korea match ends in a stalemate.
Harmanpreet Singh, who celebrated his 250th international appearance, expressed his satisfaction with the team's defensive performance against Malaysia. Coach Craig Fulton emphasized the importance of focus against China, stating that the team is there to qualify, and they need to sharpen their focus.
The Super 4s stage is wide open, with all four teams still in contention for a spot in the final.
