India vs Malaysia Hockey Live Score: Catch all the live udpates
India vs Malaysia Hockey Highlights, Women’s Asian Champions Trophy 2024 Live Score: The Indian Women’s Hockey Team kicked off their Bihar Women’s Asian Champions Trophy Rajgir 2024 campaign with a 4-0 victory against Malaysia in the historic city of Rajgir today.

India play their next match of the Bihar Women’s Asian Champions Trophy Rajgir 2024 against Korea on 12th November at 4:45 PM IST.
