cent performances have lifted our confidence, and the players are eager to showcase their best.” UAE, placed in Group A with India, Pakistan, and Oman, will begin their campaign against India on September 10 at the Dubai International Stadium. They will then face Oman on September 15 in Abu Dhabi before taking on Pakistan on September 17 in Dubai. Waseem emphasized the team’s balance of young talent and experienced players: “We’ll rely on our senior players to guide the juniors, but everyone is ready to contribute. The atmosphere in the camp is positive, and we’re determined to give our best.” Despite being in a tough group, the skipper says the pressure is minimal. “We’ve beaten stronger teams before, and we know it’s possible again. Playing at home gives us an edge—our players are familiar with the humidity and dew conditions, which could work in our favor.” With the backing of local fans and home advantage, UAE hopes to make a strong impression in the tournament.
