Tokyo, Aug 21 (TIWN) The Indian women's hockey team will on Wednesday face hosts and World No. 14 Japan in the final of the Olympic Test Event at the Oi Hockey Stadium.

After an impressive performance against the World No. 2 Australia, where they managed a 2-2 draw, the Indian eves on Tuesday put in a tough fight and played out a 0-0 draw against World No. 11 China in their final round-robin clash. 

The Indian team looked in good rhythm during the initial stages of the first quarter, and constantly built pressure on the Chinese defence. The World No. 10 side looked comfortable in possession, and rotated the ball well to threaten their opponents in the opening 10 minutes, which also reflected when they won their first penalty corner of the match in the eighth minute.  India’s penalty corner expert, Gurjit Kaur, stepped up to take the set-piece, but could not find the back of the net as the Chinese goalkeeper Dongxiao Li deflected the ball away from danger. China looked to attack the Indians on the counter, but could not find an opening in the first quarter as the scores remained 0-0.
