Pakistan’s disastrous start to their hockey campaign Down Under stretched into the second day when they were trounced 4-2 by England in a match of the International Super Series Hockey 9s in Perth on Friday.
After going down 2-4 against hosts Australia in the opening match on Thursday, Pakistan failed to raise their game against England and lost their second game by the same margin.
The back-to-back defeats do not augur well for the Pakistanis, who are preparing for the Champions Trophy to be played in Melbourne from December 1-9.
