Congratulations. It is a win which was needed to built teams morale and tempo to win.Victory can not be replaced by runner-up or any other ranking in the tournament.In this tri series where there were only 3 teams,pakistan drew with India 1-1 and 3-3,lost to Australia 3-1 and won in the final 4-3.Gutsy comeback in the tournament.This particular win a confidence builder for the team hopefully they can start on the right foot in the upcomoing Champions trophy tournament.after loosing the 9 sided tournament mizeraqbly the team has shown character to defeat one of the top team Australia in the current world ranking.According to recent world hockey rankings Pakistan stands # 9 and they have lost # 6 ranking in the world which PHF continues to claim.Hopefully the team will be # 1 in the Champions Trophy and Olympics.
