The  India football coach Stephen Constantine has termed the forthcoming Tri-Nation Football series as a 'stage to try new players' .

In a press conference, he said "We're playing two games before the AFC Asian Cup Qualifiers where I can try out more players. We got one team from the Caribbean region and another from Africa. It's going to a tough test for us ahead of the Asian Cup qualifier,"

"We haven't played together since June. The ongoing camp and this tournament will help us get into the groove at the right time," Constantine added.
