PARIS: The wave of British attacks kept lashing Indian shores but PR Sreejesh stood tall at Yves-du-Manoir on Sunday. The saves kept coming in after India were reduced to 10 men following Amit Rohidas' expulsion and as the match went into a shoot-out, the entire team felt super confident.
While Sreejesh was the hero, the whole team had put their bodies on the line to drag the game into shoot-out. James Alberry put Britain ahead in the tie-breaker beating Sreejesh with a fine dribble but Harmanpreet drew India level as he rounded off rival keeper Ollie Payne. Zach Wallace looked to be in trouble as he went wide but still found the board to put Britain back ahead. It was Sukhjeet's turn next and the Jalandhar player tricked Payne with a fine dodge to make it 2-2. For Williamson and Roper, the pressure was just too much and Lalit Upadhyay and Raj Kumar Pal kept their nerves to take India home.
