The Indian men's hockey team started their Commonwealth Games 2022 campaign in style with a resounding 11-0 win against minnows Ghana. However, India's real test will be against England when the two teams face off at Birmingham on Monday, August 1. England too will give in their best and try to win against India and will try to capitalize on the advantage of being the host nation.

However, the Indian men's hockey team will now lock horns against England in their quest for an elusive Commonwealth Games gold. The phenomenal success at the Tokyo Olympics, where India clinched a historic bronze after 41 years, has ignited hopes from the Manpreet Singh-led side to stop the Australian juggernaut. Here's how and where to watch the match online.

India Confident

The Commonwealth Games have been a happy hunting ground for the largest Commonwealth country. India, a top-five finisher since the 2002 competition, has heavily relied on the shooting event that was removed from the Birmingham Games schedule.

Hence, hockey becomes more important for India in this edition of the Commonwealth Games. They will strive to at least equal their 66-medal haul from the previous Gold Coast Games at the 2022 Birmingham Games. With as much as 26 gold medals, 20 silver medals, and 20 bronze medals in their collection, India came in third place in Gold Coast.
