India are hopeful for FIBA Asia Cup 2021 Qualification with experience gained by youngsters
NEW DELHI (India) - The recent FIBA Asia Cup 2021 Qualifiers bubble in Bahrain wasn t entirely a delightful experience for India.
They headed into the bubble with high hopes, rolling off a dominating win over Iraq in the first window . Unfortunately, they were unable to keep that momentum going and suffered two straight defeats to Lebanon and Bahrain. Now as the Bahrain bubble creeps up closer and closer, there will be a lot of work for head coach Veselin Matic to do to keep India’s qualification hopes alive.
