Indian women's hockey team began their campaign in the 12th South Asian Games with a 24-0 mauling of a hapless Nepal. In a completely lopsided round robin league match, at Guwahati today, the Indian players scored goals at will. Strikers Soundarya Yendala and Poonam Barla scored the most with four strikes each. India, who have qualified for the Olympics after a gap of 36 years, are ranked 13th in the world while Nepal are not even included in ranking charts of the world governing body of the game, the FIH. India play their next league match against Sri Lanka, another minnows, tomorrow. Only three teams are competing in the Games and India are expected to walk away with the gold.
