The Kiwis fought back after they earned a Penalty Corner and Olivia Merry didn`t miss out on the opportunity of slotting the ball into the goal in the 12th minute.

The Indians earned the moment in the opening minutes of the second quarter and obtained a Penalty Corner in the 18th minute, however, Deep Grace Ekka couldn`t find a way to break the 1-1 deadlock.

India vs New Zealand live streaming: When and where to watch FIH Hockey World Cup 2022 clash in India?

The Indian Women`s Hockey Team held China to a 1-1 draw in their second pool B match here at the FIH Women`s Hockey World Cup Spain and Netherlands 2022 on Tuesday. Goals were scored by Jiali Zheng (26`) of China and Vandana Katariya (45`) of India. In their first match on Sunday, India had held England to a 1-1 draw where it was Vandana who had scored for the team while China too had drawn 2-2 against New Zealand.

It was a tense start to the match with the Chinese dominating the ball possession with a structured attack in the initial minutes of the game but once India shook off their nerves, they made some lethal circle penetrations that could have earned them an early lead. One such opportunity came in the 6th minute when Sharmila Devi and Navneet Kaur worked in tandem to take a shot on goal. But Navneet`s strike was blocked by a strong Chinese defence.

After ending the first quarter in a stalemate, India penetrated the Chinese defence on a number of occasions in the second quarter. In the 23rd minute, a PC awarded to India was contested and the referral went in favour of China. It was a shot taken by Vandana from the top of the D which bounced off Jyoti`s body into the goal, after she missed getting a deflection thus resulting in the referral going against India. But only seconds later, India found the foot of the Chinese defender winning their first PC of the match. But this chance went amiss too as Gurjit Kaur`s powerful drag-flick was blocked away by the Chinese goalie Liu Ping. China, however, did not falter when their attackers created a sublime variation that resulted in a goal. It was Jiali Zheng who put the ball past India`s experienced goalkeeper Savita in the 26th minute.

Meanwhile, India continued to work some impressive formations in their attack, earning the team another PC in the 27th minute but Monika who took the shot could not make much of the chance and the second quarter ended with China leading 1-0. Both teams displayed attacking hockey coupled with speed and patience in their efforts. The third quarter saw China fetching their first PC of the match but could not make much of it with Gu Bingfeng`s drag going wide. India, who won a couple of PCs in this quarter remained calm in their pursuit of a goal. Their wait finally ended in the 45th minute when the team converted from their 5th PC of the match.

It was the experienced striker Vandana Katariya, who once again was the cynosure of India`s PC attack. She picked up a brilliant deflection off Gurjit`s fiercely-struck drag-flick sending the ball flying past the Chinese goalie. This match too like the previous one India battled against England went down to the wire. India showed more urgency to convert a goal in the final quarter and they also defended well to keep the pressure on their opponents. They even warded off danger in the 56th minute when they conceded a PC, but they did well with the line defence to clear the ball.

Both teams contested for the ball in the dying minutes of the game, bringing the viewers to the edge of their seats. But with seconds ticking away, neither could successfully score despite China calling for a video referral asking for a PC on the hooter. With this match too ending in a stalemate, India will hunt for a win in their last round-robin league match on Thursday. On July 7, India will take on New Zealand in their third pool B match at 2300 hrs IST.&nbsp;

Vandana Katariya's goal helps India secure 1-1 draw vs China in FIH Women's Hockey World Cup

Savita Punia-led India will square off against China in their second game of the ongoing FIH Hockey Women's World Cup on Tuesday evening (July 05). Savita Punia-led Indian team had a good start to the showpiece event as they ended their opening game, versus England, with a 1-1 scoreline.

Indian team's defence made a statement by not allowing the English team to dictate terms. However, the&nbsp;forward&nbsp;as well as&nbsp;the attack have to come to the party against China. In terms of head-to-head, India lead the charge with a 11-9 lead over their Asian neighbours. Talking about China, they also played out a 1-1 draw versus New Zealand in their opening game, hence, one can expect a riveting battle between two sides who will be desperate to get off the mark with a win in the competition.
