India only have a one-goal edge over Great Britain, which can change quickly after the Britons have played New Zealand in their last league outing. Going through a painful sequence of missed opportunities in this tournament, hosts Malaysia will play for pride against India in the last league match. Beside India and Great Britain, New Zealand also have seven points, but are in fourth spot as their goal-difference is inferior in comparison. The Black Sticks too have a chance of making the final, if they post a victory over Great Britain tomorrow and India are not able to surpass the Malaysian challenge. The narrowest of wins can do the trick for New Zealand if Malaysia manages to hold India to a draw.
