Mumbai: Sony Sports Network will telecast the Bihar Women’s Asian Champions Trophy Rajgir 2024 LIVE for hockey fans across India, Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Bhutan, Nepal, Maldives, Pakistan, and Sri Lanka. This much-anticipated continental tournament will be held from November 11th to November 20th, 2024 at t the newly built Rajgir Hockey Stadium in Bihar.

Sony Sports Network will ensure a seamless broadcast of the tournament, where the Indian Women’s Team has an impressive record. Having won the trophy for the first time in 2016, India enters the competition as the defending champion after reclaiming the title in Ranchi in 2023. With this victory, India joined Japan as one of only two teams to have won the trophy twice. The Indian team will face strong competition from Olympic silver medallist China, as well as Japan, Korea, Malaysia, and Thailand.

Led by Captain Salima Tete and Vice-Captain Navneet Kaur, India will play against Malaysia on the tournament’s opening day, eager to secure an early victory. After missing out on qualification for the Paris Olympics this year, the Women’s Asian Champions Trophy presents a vital opportunity for the team to start afresh.

India must achieve a top four finish among the six participating teams to advance to the Semi-Finals on November 19th. The winners of the Semi-Finals will then progress to the Final, scheduled for November 20th. This tournament also marks the Indian Women’s Hockey Team’s first Asian competition under Chief Coach Harendra Singh, who took charge earlier this year.

All the matches will be broadcast LIVE on Sony Sports Ten 1 SD and HD channels and live streamed on SonyLIV, starting from 1500 hrs IST.
