The Indian women’s hockey team will face Argentina for the first time in the FIH Pro League 2024-25 on June 17.

After a narrow defeat against Australia, the Indian women’s hockey team is set to give their all against World No. 2 Argentina in their upcoming FIH Pro League 2024-25 (Women) matches in London on 17 and 18 June.

Currently placed 7th with 9 points, India are expected to face a tough challenge against Argentina, who are placed second in the Women’s FIH Pro League 2024-25 points table.

Speaking about the upcoming matches, Indian Women’s Hockey Team Captain Salima Tete said, “Argentina is ranked No. 2 in the world and has won 7 of their 12 FIH Pro League matches so far. Coming into this leg of the league, we knew they would be one of the toughest teams to beat. But we won’t go down without a fight — we’ll give it our all in both matches. The team has been training well to take them on and has been working on various strategies to win crucial points against them.”

We’ll give it our all and aim to come out victorious. A win against Argentina will not only help us gain points but will also give the team a big morale boost as we head to Antwerp and then Berlin for our matches against Belgium and China.”
