Hello and welcome to the live blog for the Netherlands vs India match in FIH Men's Hockey Pro League 2022-23 in Eindhoven, Netherlands.

The Indian men’s hockey team will take on the Netherlands and Argentina in the final leg of their European tour in the FIH Men’s Hockey Pro League 2022-23. The matches begin from Wednesday, June 6 onwards and will end on June 11, 2023. India concluded the first leg on a positive note by winning a bonus point through shoot-offs (after the match finished in a draw) against Great Britain.

India will first take on the Netherlands on June 6 and on the following day will be up against Argentina. Then after a break of two days, India will cap off its FIH Pro-League 2022-23 campaign after facing the Netherlands (June 10th) and Argentina (June 11th). The Tokyo Olympic bronze medallist were on top of the points table before their trip to Europe but after back-to-back losses against Belgium and Great Britain, they slid down to the second spot with 24 points.

Netherlands vs India build-up

The Stakes

India

After winning a match overall (apart from the shoot-off win) in the London leg, the Indian team will look to finish the FIH Men's Hockey Pro League 2022-23 on a high and get to maximum points possible. Craig Fulton started his reign with two losses playing defensively but came back strong in the next two defeating Olympic champions Belgium (5-1) and drawing Great Britain (4-4).

Netherlands

The Netherlands have only played four matches to date (wins-1, loss-1, draws-2) and are languishing in the penultimate position ahead of New Zealand in the points table. Thierry Brinkman tops the scoring charts for the Netherlands (2 goals from 4 matches). They will be facing a stern test against the second-placed team India and fifth-ranked Argentina.

FIH Men’s Hockey Pro League 2022-23: Indian Players to watch out for

Harmanpreet Singh

Asian Champions Trophy 2023 Harmanpreet Singh

Indian skipper Harmanpreet Singh is the leading goal scorer at the FIH Men’s Hockey Pro League 2022-23 and recently became the all-time highest goal scorer of the FIH Men's Pro League surpassing Belgian Alexander Hendricks' 34 goals. The Indian drag-flicker has bounced back strongly after a dismal run at the men's Hockey World Cup. He was the go-to man in the first leg of the European leg and had a good time at the defence as well.

Manpreet Singh

The former Indian captain has adapted to his new role pretty well in the defence and at times has bifurcated the opposition half as well. In a game in the first leg, he single-handedly dodged past several players from the mid-line and earned a penalty corner. The number seven has simultaneously put in good tackles and will play a key role in the upcoming leg in the Netherlands
