England’s performance in the round-robin league match was leveled at 1–1. Earlier that year, the Indian women’s team defeated England 2–1 in the group stage at the Commonwealth Games in Gold Coast, Australia, but lost to them in the bronze medal match. These two teams faced each other in the 2006 World Cup, where they drew 1–1 as well as the 2002 Champions Challenge 3–3 and lost 1–0 in the 1998 Women’s World Cup group match.
Even though India and England were supposed to play a double-header game in the FIH Hockey Pro League earlier this year, which would have provided an insight into their game, the match was cancelled.
Before the game, Savita said, “Even though as a team, we will focus on our performances, England and India have had some very close encounters and undoubtedly a rivalry especially in the last three-four years.” has evolved.”
“Some of our players want to challenge our goalkeeper, Maddie Hing, who has been exceptional at the goalpost. And they also have some very experienced players like Laura Unsworth, Gisele Ainsley, their captain Holly Pierne-Webb and Lily Owsley who will bring their ‘A’ game against us,” said Savita.
In their second match, they will play China on 5 July followed by a match against New Zealand at Amstelveen, New Zealand on 7 July.
