India secured their fourth consecutive victory in the Asian Champions Trophy with a 4-2 win over Malaysia, led by captain Harmanpreet Singh's hat-trick. The match, held in Jalandhar, saw India take an early lead but Malaysia equalised before halftime. Harmanpreet scored twice more in the second half, with Sukhjeet Singh also contributing a goal, ensuring India's win. The result keeps India's unbeaten record intact as they prepare for their final group-stage match against South Korea.
However, there is confusion over whether Harmanpreet broke Balbir Singh Sr.'s record of 246 goals, as conflicting statistics from Hockey India and the International Hockey Federation (FIH) have left the captain unsure of his exact tally.
