The 2022 Commonwealth Games started with pressure on both the men and women’s hockey teams of Ghana.
The Indian men’s hockey team kicked off their CWG campaign with a 11-0 win over Ghana.
It was a one-way traffic in the Pool B men’s hockey action between India and Ghana.
Abhishek broke the deadlock inside the opening minute, while Harmanpreet Singh converted a penalty corner to score India’s second goal.
The third goal came after a fantastic combination play between Abhishek and Shamsher, with the latter finding the net.
Emotions were running high as the game got underway. India came into the game against Ghana, needing a win to secure their spot as third in the world.
The Black Sticks – both the men and women’s teams – have a lot to learn going forward.
A strong Wales’ team hit four past the Ghanaian women’s hockey team on Monday with the African side playing Canada on Tuesday to redeem themselves.
