New Zealand sent Asian champions Pakistan crashing to a 3-1 defeat, while Argentina beat South Korea 4-3 with just seconds on the clock, their first win of the tournament, which is an important warm-up for the London Olympics. Britain, who drew their opening match 3-3 on Friday with hosts Malaysia, were in good form in the early part of the match, with Glenn Kirkham and Ben Hawes both scoring.

But some poor defending saw India draw level with goals from VR Raghunath and Sunil Sowmarpet, leaving it to Nick Catlin to save the day for Britain, ranked fourth in the world, with a goal in the 62nd minute.
