#5. India 3 – Great Britain 1, 2012
Trending
A new look Indian team took on a fairly inexperienced Great Britain team in Melbourne for their first match of the tournament, and after their disastrous performance in the London Olympics, not many gave them a chance.
And things looked to be going according to the script till the 22nd minute when Danish Mujtaba scored an equaliser to put India back in the match. This was probably the fillip his teammates were looking for as in the next 48 minutes, the Indians were all over the British and the scorecard read 3-1 when the final hooter was sounded. Apart from Mujtaba, Yuvraj Walmiki (38th) before Gurwinder Singh Chandi scored in a set-piece penalty corner (66th minute).
