The Indian team, who had won a historic silver medal in the previous edition in London, will begin their campaign against arch-rivals Pakistan. "For the Indian team, the match against Pakistan is just another game where we will be looking to win those three points. In this tournament every single match is crucial if we want to see ourselves in the title round because the first two teams on top of the points table will play the Final," asserted Sreejesh who expressed confidence of a good start. India's forward line will see two changes in the squad that was named earlier this month with Akashdeep Singh and Sumit Kumar (Jr) being rested for the tournament.
