Eight teams competed in the tournament with seven of them booking a spot via the host nation spot or by finishing in the top six of the previous tournament with the remaining spot being played between seven teams (which was won by Hong Kong). These eight teams were separated into two groups of four teams with the top two of each group qualifying through to the semi-finals while the bottom two competed for fifth place. After competing in the same group, India and Pakistan competed in the final with India taking out their first title with a 4–2 win. [1] South Korea claimed the bronze medal after defeating Japan 4–2.
