I think that doesn't apply in Hockey. More a case of home support and some excellent play. Anyways 4-1 up now.

Watching a hockey game after a long time.

I'm shocked at the athleticism and speed of the game these days, even though neither India nor Pakistan are, AFAIK, currently dominating world hockey.

Netherlands defeated Argentina 3-0.

India would face Aus today. Key match for us. If we win it we might be one of the favorites to make it to the next stage.

Match will start at 2035 IST.

Sandeep Singh was just magical with his drag flicks. His 2nd goal was simply awesome. Pak had absolutely no chance on that. Such a scorcher that shot was.

Did I see that some Indian was banned for 3 ganes for attacking a Pak player with his hockey stick?

Yep I did. Reduced to 2 on appeal. Here

Shivendra Singh, India’s leading striker, will line up against England in Saturday’s game after his three-match ban for deliberately hitting a Pakistan player with his stick was reduced to two on appeal.

Ind simply couldn't match Aus's pace. Aus were supreme during entire 70-min duration.

India's forwards fluffed some very simple chances. Shivendra Singh's absence cost them dearly. Drag flicker Sandeep Singh was totally off color.

They've softened up hockey since I played it.

Really harsh decision. Was accidental IMO and Pakistan didn't complain, neither was it an issue on the field. Oh well...

Anyways, it isn't that India played badly yesterday (except penalty corners), Aus were excellent in their defence and lethal on counters. Oh well...

Hockey is discriminatory against left-handers. For that reason it should be banned.
