India ladies’s soccer head coach Thomas Dennerby on Thursday named a 23-member squad for the worldwide pleasant matches in Jordan and Uzbekistan later this month.
The senior ladies’s nationwide staff will play matches in Jordan between March 17 to 22, and in Uzbekistan between March 23 and 29.
These matches are being performed in preparation for the staff’s participation within the first spherical of the AFC Women’s Olympic Qualifiers.
India, positioned in Group G, will tackle hosts Kyrgyz Republic and Turkmenistan in a round-robin format of the AFC Olympic qualifiers from April 4-10.
The seven group winners from the primary spherical of the qualifiers will be part of Asia’s 5 highest-ranked groups – DPR Korea, Japan, Australia, China and the Republic of Korea – within the second spherical in October.
The squad for the Olympic qualifying match will probably be named after the pleasant matches in Jordan and Uzbekistan.
