I agree Somesh! The UAE narrowly missed out on qualifying for the AFC U-16 finals from their group which had some quality opposition in Kuwait and Yemen (the eventual qualifiers), it would be a good test for the blue cubs, especially in terms of trying out combinations from the mixed IMG academy and India-based players in the squad.
UAE are host of U-17 WC 2013 so for them it doesnt matter if they qualified or not.....teams like Uzbek,DPR korea,UAE are different sides at this level so real test for India to see where they stand and if USA tour was any useful.

chinese have a strong youth set up....beating them would be an uphill task for India.
It seems that our colts will be in action against the UAE u-16 national team on september 11 and 14.

since UAE did not qualify my expectations are high that we beat them
