Junior world champions india

The Indian Junior Men: The Indian Junior Men's Hockey Team will look to kick off their FIH Hockey Men’s Junior World Cup Malaysia 2023 campaign with a victory when they take on their Asian counterparts, Korea, in the first match in Pool C at the National Hockey Stadium in Bukit Jalil, here on Tuesday.

The Indian team is going into this game with a lot of confidence as they have a better head-to-head record against Korea. Out of the six matches played between the two teams, India won three, Korea won two, and one match ended in a draw.

The last time both teams faced each other was during the semi-final of the Men's Junior Asia Cup held earlier this year where India registered a massive 9-1 win over Korea.
