New Delhi, March 2 -- Australia firmly kept themselves in the hunt for a semifinal slot with an impressive 5-2 victory over India in pool B of the Hockey World Cup in New Delhi on Tuesday. Indian players failed to maintain the previous match momentum in their Tuesday's match. The hosts were completely off-coloured till the last minute of the game, when Vikram Pillay reduced the margin by 1-3 through a brilliant diving goal scored on an Australian goalkeeper's rebound. Apart from that the entire first-half was on the name of visitors.

Desmond Abbott scored a filed goal in the 26th minute to give Australia 3-0 lead. Vikram Pillay scored for India in the 34th minute (1-3).
