Junior Hockey World Cup 2025: India vs Chile live match time, streaming

Hosts India will begin their Junior Hockey World Cup 2025 campaign today in Chennai with a favourable opening clash against Chile, aiming to reclaim the crown they last lifted nine years ago. The two-time champions enter the tournament as strong contenders, backed by their world No. 2 ranking and recent silver-medal finish at the Sultan of Johor Cup. With Germany once again the leading title favourites, India will look to make an early statement in Pool B, which also features Switzerland and Oman. 

 

Under the guidance of former India goalkeeper and two-time Olympic medallist P.R. Sreejesh, the junior squad looks well balanced, though penalty-corner conversion remains a concern. India managed only eight goals from 53 PCs in Malaysia, an issue Sreejesh says the team has worked extensively on, with drag-flickers putting in heavy numbers at training.

 

Captain Rohit anchors the defence and carries added responsibility in Araijeet Singh Hundal’s absence, after the seasoned drag-flicker was ruled out with a shoulder injury. The midfield unit, led by Ankit Pal and Adrohit Ekka, will look to control the tempo, while the forward line—featuring Dilraj Singh and Arshdeep Singh—aims for early breakthroughs.

 

Ranked 18th, Chile may not pose a major threat, but India will be mindful of avoiding early complacency
