Results: 21st Sultan Azlan Shah Cup 2012
After 11 days of competition, the Champions for this year’s Sultan Azlan Shah cup were declared. We know that all six of the teams that accepted the invitation to play in Ipoh this year would proceed to the London Olympics next month, but which are the stronger teams?
I have the finals results here in photos, and believe me, it is not easy to get all team members together for group photo shoots!
Here is the points table – each team played six matches each.
1. New Zealand (12)
2. Argentina (12)
3. Great Britain (11)
4. India (9)
5. South Korea (8)
6. Malaysia (5)
7. Pakistan (3)

i think argentina played so well. they showed skills which is totally lost for ages . NZ won but i believe everyone in that stadium knew who were the champions .
Agreed with Argentina playing well but they conceded their opportunities. If they don’t score, they don’t win.
NZ played well throughout the tournament but the main event is actually the Olympics, not this.
After watch the London Olympics games, why New Zealand is so strong in playing this game?
I get what you mean. I was rather surprised by NZ’s performance in the London Olympics too.
Well, Australia did not come to Ipoh this year, and NZ was seeded 3rd.
I guess the luck of the draw played a part also.
