The Indian men's hockey team thrashed New Zealand 4-0 in the third and final Test to complete a series whitewash at the Sports India centre.

Rupinder Pal Singh (8th min), Surender Kumar (15th min), Mandeep Singh (44th min) and Akashdeep Singh (60th min) scored the goals for India.

India took a 1-0 lead in the first quarter after Rupinder found the net with a low flick from the home team's second penalty corner, thus taking his personal goal count to four in the series. Surender scored a field goal after receiving an assist from Rupinder on the top of the striking circle. Sardar Singh and Simranjeet Singh then combined on the left flank to set up Mandeep for India's third goal in the 44th minute. 

Striker Akashdeep scored the fourth goal just at the stroke of the final hooter. — PTI
