India thrashed hosts New Zealand 3-1 in the third match of the Four Nations Invitational hockey tournament on Saturday to set up their summit clash against Olympic silver medallist Belgium here on Sunday. India scored through Harmanpreet Singh, Dilpreet Singh and Mandeep Singh while Kane Russell was the lone scorer for New Zealand. Belgium, on the other hand, sealed their berth after beating Japan 4-1. New Zealand needed at least a draw to progress to the summit clash but World No.6 India proved too hot to handle.
