Asian 5s Hockey: Bangladesh pummelled 15-1 by India
Bangladesh Men's Hockey team made a
frustrating start in the 11-nation Men's Asian Hockey five-a-side (5s) World
Cup Qualifier after suffering a humiliating 15-1 goals defeat against India in
their opening day held in Salalah, Oman Tuesday evening.
Bangladesh were trailing by 1-7 goals in the first half against their giant
neighbor India.
Sarowar Morshed Shawon scored the
lone goal for Bangladesh in the very 2nd minute of the match by a field goal,
UNB reported.
Earlier, Bangladesh was placed in the six- nation Elite group with India,
Pakistan, Japan, Malaysia and hosts Oman while five-team Challenger group
consists of Afghanistan, Iran, Hong Kong, Indonesia and Kazakhstan.
In the remaining elite group matches, Bangladesh will play Pakistan on Aug 30
at 2 pm, Malaysia on the same day at 8 pm, Japan on Aug 31 at 2pm and
hosts Oman, also on August 31 at 10pm (all times local).
Bangladesh national men's hockey reached Oman on Saturday to take part in the
eleven-nation qualifying round of the meet to be held between August 29
to September 2.
