The seventh edition of the regional women's football competition will feature seven teams -- Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, Maldives, Nepal, Pakistan and Sri Lanka -- and will run from October 17 to 30. Nepal are hosting the tournament for the third successive time, and Bangladesh are the defending champions.
The Loitongbam Ashalata Devi-led Blue Tigress will look for a strong start in pursuit of a record-extending sixth title. India's all-conquering run was halted in the last edition when they go down to hosts Nepal in the semi-final. Lessons learned, and they are now ready for another title-winning campaign.
Pakistan, meanwhile, are still chasing a maiden final appearance. Their best showing in this regional championship was a semi-final appearance in the inaugural edition, in 2010. Played at Cox's Bazar Stadium in Bangladesh, India hammered them 8-0.
History Maker
Ashalata will make a century of international appearances when she takes the pitch on Thursday. The 31-year-old defender from Manipur said that winning the trophy for the country is more important than personal milestones.
“I am excited and happy that I will play my 100th game against Pakistan. The focus, however, will be on winning all the games and taking the trophy back home. This is the main dream and motive for coming to Nepal,” Ashalata told www.the-aiff.com.
