India, positioned in Group B with Australia, Syria, and Uzbekistan in the ongoing AFC Asian Cup 2023, is preparing for a pivotal encounter against Australia at Doha’s Ahmad bin Ali Stadium on Saturday.

In the opening game of the 2023 AFC Asian Cup, Qatar, acting as the host, secured a commanding 3-0 victory against Lebanon. Akram Afif contributed two goals, and Almoez Ali added another, with Afif kickstarting the scoring in the 45th minute. Despite Lebanon’s attempts to equalize, Qatar displayed unwavering resilience, expanding their lead with Ali’s goal in the 56th minute.
