SAFF U-16 Championship: Where and how to watch India vs Bangladesh game?
Both teams will be looking for a win in the opening match
India take on Bangladesh in their opening encounter of the SAFF U-16 Championship 2023 in Bhutan, and head coach Ishfaq Ahmed feels that the first 30 minutes will be crucial for his boys in the tournament.
The India U-16s have had a month-long training camp in Srinagar, before travelling to Bhutan, where they are set to play Bangladesh (September 2) and Nepal (September 6) in Group A of the SAFF U-16 Championship, with the top two teams from each group making it to the semi-finals.
India head coach Ishfaq Ahmed laid emphasis on his team’s preparations in Srinagar, a city that enjoys similar weather conditions to that of Thimphu.
“The weather conditions are similar, but Thimphu (2,334m) is at a higher altitude than Srinagar (1,585m), so stamina will be key,” said Ahmed on the eve of their match against Bangladesh. “
“Even if somebody tires out, it should not be a problem, because we are allowed five substitutions, so we can always change our players,” he said.
India’s first match of the tournament will be against Bangladesh, one of the tougher teams in the competition, but the U-16 boys are up for the challenge.
