Vandana Katariya scored a brace as the Indian women's hockey team defeated Wales 3-1 to record its second successive win in Pool A at the Commonwealth Games here.
India scored all their three goals from penalty corners with Vandana finding the net twice, while Gurjit Kaur fired in a fierce drag-flick on Saturday.
The Indians were the much better side on display as they controlled the game from the start to finish, barring a few phases.
Penalty corner conversion still continued to be a concern for India as they made use of three out of the seven they earned in the match.
