The team booked its place in the knock-out (quarterfinals) after scripting a 5-1 win over Chandigarh, with a brace from Mohammed Raheel Mouseen, here on Tuesday,

In the last match of the day, Tamil Nadu staged a remarkable recovery from being 0-2 down to draw 2-2 with Madhya Pradesh. Tamil Nadu will play its final group match against Andaman & Nicobar on Thursday.
