World Hockey League 2017 (Match Schedule)

India Pakistan - Face off

The 2017 Men’s Hockey World League Semi-Final, London clash between India and Pakistan takes place on 18 June. Newsflash previews the Mother of all Games.

The two teams battle it out at the Lee Valley Hockey and Tennis Centre in what has been dubbed as the ‘Super Sunday’ of the tournament. HWL, which takes place from 15 to 25 June 2017, will also act as the World Cup Qualifier.

The greatest historical rivalry in World Hockey is a classic match involving these two teams from the sub-continent

Most important, this game is about passion, pride and honour. Emotions and sentiments will be running in full flow. For the players, it’s not just about being skilful, but also about controlling their nerves. Thus it is about how the players execute their plans under the most extreme pressure.

Both teams will be hoping to qualify for the Bhubaneswar HWL final later in 2017. They can also earn an automatic spot in the 2018 Bhubaneswar Hockey World Cup. Qualification for the World Cup will only be clear, following the outcome of the semi-final in Johannesburg and results elsewhere.

In the head to head Pakistan has won 82, lost 55 and drawn 30 games. At the 2016 Asian Hockey Champions Trophy clash India beat Pakistan 3-2 in the round robin game and final. However Pakistan will be hoping to settle the score in this action packed fixture.
