India to host Men's Asian Champions Trophy hockey for the first time

India will host the Asian Champions Trophy hockey tournament for the first time from August 3 to 12 in Chennai, with international matches returning to the city after 16 years.

The seventh edition of the prestigious continental event, which was inaugurated in 2011, will serve as a precursor to the Asian Games hockey competition in Hangzhou, China in September.

Asian hockey powerhouse and three-time champion Pakistan as well as China are yet to confirm their participation in the tournament that will be played at the Mayor Radhakrishnan Stadium.

India have won the tournament three times, in 2011, 2016, and were joint winners with Pakistan in 2018, while South Korea clinched the last edition title in 2021 in Dhaka.
