Six players left India's under-23 squad after the 3-2 win over Pakistan: three were called up to the senior team for the New Zealand friendlies and three returned to Mumbai City. Coach Naushad Moosa has about 20 players and only three nominal forwards. A draw puts India into the semi-finals as group winners, while Maldives, beaten 3-0 by Pakistan, need a win.
