Boby Singh Dhami: Harmanpreet Singh and Boby Singh Dhami scored a goal each, but the Indian men's hockey team went down 2-3 to Australia in a tightly contested fifth and final test match, suffering a 5-0 thrashing in the bilateral test series.
Harmanpreet put India ahead in the fourth minute of the match and Boby Singh reduced the margin in the 53rd minute after Jeremy Hayward (20’), Ky Willott (38’), and Tim Brand (39’) scored the goals for the hosts.
In the first quarter, India kicked off with a focused approach to maintaining ball possession and setting the tempo of the game.
