The Indians on Sunday were the dominant side in the early exchanges creating some chances in the first half. In the 24th minute of the game, Ajay Yadav scored after a penalty corner improvisation giving Harendra Singh-coached team a breakthrough.
As England edged their way back into the game, scoring off a penalty corner conversion from Will Calnan in the 26th minute and then took the lead via Ed Horler's goal in the 30th. The two sides went into half-time with the hosts leading 2-1.
India came out faster again in the second half, but were denied the equaliser by a very strong English defence. There were chances which India failed to capitalise and England held on to take a 2-1 win in the end.
"We are creating several chances, but have been missing too many opportunities in front of goal. It is a fault we will rectify and hope to improve in the next match," Harendra said after the game.
