India should use fifa guideline of playing a higher ranked team and a lower ranked team and they are doing it philippine is higher raked team and napal is lower raked team
India have tried this formula of playing tougher teams in last 2-3 years and it did not work..maybe Keralakid you were a kid then and not following...We played <b>Kuwait,Iraq,UAE,Yemen,Thailand,Malaysia,Azerbaijan,Qatar,Trinidad & Tobago,Oman, Zambia</b>..it doesnt get tougher than this...then we tried the lower rung in the form of <b>Tajikistan,Palestine, Singapore</b> and that too isnt working but we are trying with next in line <b>Phillipines, Nepal and Maldives</b> next year..honestly AIFF has actually managed to pull together some fantastic friendlies for team India in last 2-3 years but the team has disappointed<br>
