India vs Great Britain Head to Head Record in Hockey Ahead of Paris Olympics 2024 Quarter-Final

The Indian Men's Hockey Team will lock horns with Great Britain in the quarterfinals of the ongoing Paris Olympics 2024 on Sunday (August 4). This will be a rematch from the Tokyo 2020 last eight match when India beat Great Britain 3-1 and later went on to clinch a bronze medal.

It was the Indian men's team's first victory against Australia in the Olympics since 1972 Munich games. India bounced back from a 1-2 loss to the defending champions, Belgium, in their previous game.

As mentioned earlier, this will not be India's first meeting against Great Britain, having met them in Olympics several times in previous editions and also in various other competitions such as World League Final, Champions Trophy and Olympic Qualifiers. Here is a look at the head to head record:
