The match will most likely be at the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium in Delhi with the reason cited being that all the other stadiums are booked for I-League.

Or we could go back to the Ambedkar Stadium... a stadium which holds a proud history for modern day football in India.

By the way, why can we not do friendlies over the summer? We can easily do something for July even though there are no FIFA dates that time.

Kerala or Gauhati would be free in that case... could well attract good support too... gauhati would be better of two

@7Negi The ISL is not till September. Honestly, the AIFF have no excuses to not organize a late June/early July one-week camp with maybe a friendly or two.

7negi
