Times of India·Saturday, 20 June 2026
The Indian women's hockey team beat Chile 6-0 in the Nations Cup semi-finals to set up a final against hosts New Zealand. Navneet Kaur and Deepika each scored twice, with Neha and Rutuja Dadaso Pisal adding one goal apiece. India's clinical finishing, especially from penalty corners, was the highlight of the performance.
Why It Matters
Indian women's hockey reaching a major international final is a big deal — the sport rarely gets this level of spotlight, and a win against New Zealand in their backyard would be historic.
