Back to their best after a slow start, defending champions India would look to continue their cautious experiments when they take on arch-rivals Pakistan in their third match of the Asian Champions Trophy hockey tournament here on Friday. India did not have the best of starts to the tournament as Korea came from two goals down to hold the Manpreet Singh-led side 2-2 in their opener.

The Indians came out a completely different side against Bangladesh on Wednesday, thrashing the hosts 9-0. The Graham Reid-coached side experimented with their penalty corners, trying out variations instead of direct flicks. It was a completely dominant display and the holders would look to continue in the same vein against Pakistan on Friday.
