Bhopal: The Indian eves defeated a spirited Belarus side 2-1 to register their fourth consecutive victory in the five-match Test series here yesterday.


India were quick to start off the blocks with Renuka Yadav scoring a field goal in the 6th minute of the match.


The first quarter turned out to be an eventful one for the Indians as Gurjit Kaur successfully converted a penalty corner in the 12th minute to give the team a 2-0 lead. The visitors responded in the second quarter as Nastassia Syrayezhka scored a field goal in the 21st minute.


However, the Indian defence held strong thereafter, denying Belarus any opportunity to score in the two goal-less quarters after half time. India eventually posted a 2-1 victory.
