England held by hosts India in Hockey World Cup

England's Nicholas Bandurak fired a shot against the post in the dying seconds of an entertaining 0-0 draw against India at the Hockey World Cup.

England were also guilty of some errant finishing, failing to convert a succession of penalty corners.

The point leaves England top of Pool D and through to the knockout stage.

They are level on four points with India, but above them on goal difference.

Wales, who were beaten 5-0 by England in their opening match, are bottom of the table after losing their second match 5-1 against third-placed Spain.

The pool winners go straight through to the quarter-finals, while the second and third-placed teams face an extra play-off to reach the last eight.

England, who play their final group match against Spain on Thursday, have never won the World Cup but have made the semi-finals of the last three tournaments.
