Apart from Kanika (46바카라™, 50바카라™), Sonam (21바카라™) was on target for India, while Milagros Seigal (3바카라™) and Agustina Mari (24바카라™) scored for Uruguay in the match here on Sunday.

Uruguay took an early lead in the third minute through Seigal바카라™s penalty corner.

Sonam pulled India level in the second quarter, converting a penalty corner in the 21st minute.

But Uruguay regained the lead soon after, with Mari scoring off another penalty corner.

India bounced back in the final quarter as Kanika netted twice -- first off a penalty corner, and then with a field goal -- to seal the victory.

India will next take on hosts Argentina on Tuesday.
