This victory symbolized India's resurgence on the continental stage, reflecting their ongoing commitment to excellence in hockey.

The 4th title has finally arrived in 2025. The Indian team was excellent in the tournament, and finished their title-winning campaign staying unbeaten as well. In the final, Harmanpreet Singh and his men won 4-1, with goals from Dilpreet Singh, Sukhjeet Singh and Amit Rohidas.
