India will face arch-rival Pakistan in the FIH Pro League at the Lee Valley Hockey and Tennis Centre in London on Tuesday.
India enters the highly anticipated match riding high on a thrilling victory over the reigning Olympic and Pro League champions, the Netherlands. They also defeated world No. 1 Germany during the same leg.
Pakistan, meanwhile, is looking to bounce back following a challenging European leg.
The two powerhouses of world hockey will play each other for the first time since the Asian Champions Trophy 2024, where India edged Pakistan 2-1.
Star drag-flicker Harmanpreet Singh was named captain of the 24-man squad for the European leg of India’s Pro League campaign, which began in Rotterdam and concludes in London.
Veteran midfielder and former skipper Manpreet Singh, who became India’s most-capped player during the Rotterdam leg, will also feature against Pakistan.
