    Junior World Cup Tamil Nadu: Bangladesh finished their FIH Hockey Men’s Junior World Cup Tamil Nadu 2025 campaign on a happy note, clinching the title in the inaugural Challenger Trophy competition, introduced by the FIH president Tayyab Ikram as an incentive for the 17-24 place playoffs, with a 5-4 victory over Austria in Madurai on Monday.

    Bangladesh’s first-ever title of global significance came via an impressive win over Austria, led by their goal-scoring machine Amirul Islam, who scored another hat-trick as Madurai hosted the last-four matches of the tournament.

    Amirul Islam was the star for Bangladesh in the playoff match for the 17/18 positions. A goal off a penalty corner for the drag-flick star Amirul and two penalty-stroke conversions put him firmly on top of the goal-scorer’s list with 18 goals, as Amirul, Hozifa Hussain, and Rakibul Hasan ensured Bangladesh went ahead 3-0 by the 35th minute.
