“This Intercontinental Cup is very important for us in the course to the 2019 AFC Asian Cup. We need to play as many matches as we can and teams like New Zealand, Kenya are not at all easy teams, even Chinese Taipei have a good squad. We are very happy to play against them and it will be crucial for us to learn from these games and rectify the mistakes, so we are looking forward to it,” Jhingan was quoted by Sportkeeda.

“You need to play with tougher oppositions in order to make yourself better. I think this is the first time we are playing against Kenya which is a completely different team with respect to us. They have a different approach and we know it’s going to be physically exhausting and that’s the challenge.” he added.
