Great Britain: Former India hockey captain Viren Rasquinha believes that Harmanpreet Singh-led side will face a tough battle against Great Britain in the quarterfinal clash on Sunday. India finished second in Pool B with 10 points in five matches.

In their last match against Australia, the Indian team scripted history with a 3-2 win to register their first win against them since the 1972 Olympics.

Rasquinha lauded the Indian team for playing to their potential against Australia but also warned them of the stiff challenge in the knockout stage.
