Rutuja Dadaso Pisal (30') and Sakshi Rana (54') scored a goal each as Ranchi Royals defeated Soorma Hockey Club 2-0 in their Women’s Hockey India League (HIL) 2025-26 encounter at the Marang Gomke Jaipal Singh Munda Astro Turf Stadium in Ranchi on Friday.

Defences were on top in the first quarter as both sides hardly made any errors or gave away good chances to their opposition. Ranchi Royals held more possession in the beginning; however, JSW Soorma Hockey Club showed great attacking intent and made 10 circle penetrations in the first 15 minutes of the contest.
