FIH Pro League: Indian Women’s Hockey Team Goes Down 0-3 Against Australia
FIH Hockey Pro League: The Indian women’s hockey team registered a 0-3 defeat against Australia in the FIH Hockey Pro League 2023/24 at Kalinga Hockey Stadium, Bhubaneswar on Wednesday. Australia captain Grace Stewart (19’), Tatum Stewart (23’), and Kaitlin Nobbs (55’) were the goalscorers on the day.
India started the match on the front foot, forcing Australia to concede a penalty corner in the second minute of the game but Australia’s goalkeeper Zoe Newman was on her toes to avert any danger. Both teams went on to create a few goalscoring chances in the next couple of minutes but were unable to find the final touch. Australia piled on the pressure as the first quarter came to a close but the Indian defence stood firm.
As India continued to search for a goal in the second quarter, Australia initiated a counter through Kaitlin Nobbs who found herself open in the shooting circle and passed to Grace Stewart, who tapped the ball in to score the first goal of the game.
