India Set To Begin SAFF U20 Campaign Against Rivals Pakistan
Understandably, the Young Colts arrived in the Maldives capital on Monday and quickly shifted their focus to preparations for the tournament. Placed in Group B alongside Pakistan and Bangladesh, India face a tight schedule in a three-team group where every point is vital. India will meet Bangladesh in their second match on March 28. With only two fixtures in the group, a single victory could prove decisive in securing a place in the semi-finals.
The stakes were heightened further after Bangladesh defeated Pakistan 2-0 in the first Group B encounter. That result means Pakistan enter Thursday’s match needing a win to keep their knockout hopes alive. India, therefore, can expect a determined opponent, making the contest rather tricky despite their strong credentials.
