Team India, looking to make amends for not being able to find a place on the podium four years ago, will be uneasy after their 4-4 draw against England which should have been a fairly straightforward win considering they were 4-1 up with 14 minutes to go. But suddenly the Indians started ‘losing’ players. 

India got three cards—Varun Kumar twice (one for five minutes in the first half and then for 10 minutes in the second half) and Gurjan Singh (10-minute suspension in the final quarter for dangerous play). With India down to nine men, the now 11 charged-up Englishmen got the upper hand.
