The Black Sticks Men have recorded successive wins following a 4-1 result against Japan at the Sultan Azlan Shah Cup in Malaysia.
The victory sees the Black Sticks remain undefeated, banking three valuable points to move top of the standings with games still to play later in the day.
Nick Wilson, Simon Child, Nic Woods and Hugo Inglis scored goals for New Zealand in an energy sapping game played in 37 degree heat.
Head coach Colin Batch said it was a good performance given the temperature, which forced extended quarter and halftime breaks.
"I thought we dealt with the heat pretty well, we started very well and scored a couple of early goals which gave us a good edge," he said.
