The teams stride out to the pitch and the national anthems for India and Malaysia are sung. First quarter coming up in a few minutes.

Play is underway in Ipoh. India attacking from right to left and Malaysia from left to right in the first half. Remember that India need to win, if they are to keep their hopes realistically alive for advancement to the final.

India open the scoring! A lovely bit of stickwork, leading up to the tap-in from promising young Tamil Nadu forward Karthi Selvam and the visitors go ahead in the seventh minute.

It's been an impressive start from India, and they thoroughly deserve their one-goal lead. The defeat to Belgium would have stung and the Sanjay-led side is eyeing a reset today.

Malaysia strike back! It's a lucky goal for the hosts as Faizal Saari's drag-flick is blocked by India goalie Pawan, but the ball ricochets off his helmet towards the net and trickles in. It's all level in the 14th minute.

Despite dominating the first quarter, India end it with the scoreline reading 1-1 thanks to Faizal Saari's equaliser. The second quarter coming right up.

India are back in the lead! Sukhjeet it is, who spins in the circle and drills the ball into the Malaysian net to restore the visitors' advantage in the 21st minute.

India end the second quarter with a goal in their kitty, though they ought to have scored more. Malaysia would be counting themselves lucky to still be in contention in the game, while India would aim to make the scoreline more conclusive in the third quarter.

The players return from the brief mid-game interval. India now attacking from left to right and Malaysia from right to left.

Fitri Saari draws Malaysia back level in the 36th minute! India are left scratching their heads as all their hard work so far hasn't resulted in a scoreline they would be anywhere near okay with.

India bounce back in the 39th minute! It is the experienced Amit Rohidas, who comes up with a no-nonsense drag flick conversion after the visitors earn a penalty corner. Rohidas' shot goes zooming into the bottom left corner and India have the lead again.

Malaysia claw their way back in, yet again. They score towards the fag end of the third quarter to bring the match to parity at 3-3. India, on top of that, are a man down and need to pull up their socks in finishing in the final 15 minutes.

India get the fourth goal they needed. Captain Sanjay converts a penalty stroke in the 51st minute and Craig Fulton exults. It has been a really challenging game for India but they now have the lead again. Can they hold on for the final nine minutes?

India just about hold on. Malaysia make a number of fervent attempts in the dying moments but fail to score, which means Sanjay and Co eke out a really hard-fought 4-3 win against the hosts. A well-deserved victory for India, who earn their second win in three matches.

There's not much time to rest for India, who next take on New Zealand in a crucial group-stage encounter tomorrow (Thursday, November 27) at 11am IST. This will be India's penultimate league phase game, and victory is imperative for a potential final spot.
