Hello and welcome to Sportskeeda's LIVE updates of the match between India U16s and Bangkok Glass FC U17s.

The last tour the Blue colts played in was the China Tour -- where they lost 1-0 against the hosts, lost 1-3 against Thailand, and drew 1-1 against North Korea.

Bibiano Fernandes' boys were back to winning ways in their latest encounter -- against Thailand's Buriram United on July 13 -- where they won 2-0.

The young colts have played really well and looked solid as a unit. The positive outcomes from their previous few tours is the confidence they exude on the pitch and the goal-scoring opportunities which are created. The only place where the Blue outfits were lacking a little is the finishing in the final third. Coach Fernandes is working on this in training and hopes that it will be reflected soon in the matches.

Will the Indian colts win their second friendly match on the trot or will the U17s of Bangkok Glass FC be too hot to handle for them? Who's your money on?
