Mentally, India haven't come out of the 170s ranking.

Ok right? First match after 6 months.. better to improve morale by an away victory then slowly built up...

its better than nepal/Bhutan at home

Deb_Ban

Yeah agree. And better than Nepal/ Bhutan, too.

Don't think it will be an easy match.....Cambodia /malaysia/Philippines are realistic teams we should play against...some smaller African sides would help eg Zambia /Zimbabwe /angola/ethopia/uganda where we can use our good diplomatic advantage to arrange friendlies

Deb_Ban

Right. In reality, we are around 150s (we jumped with the help of some tricks). So more or less tight match.
