Khujand: A 20-member Senior Indian National squad landed at the Khujand International Airport on Friday (August 9, 2013). The Indian squad flew to Dushanbe, the Capital of Tajikistan from New Delhi from where they boarded a connecting flight to the second largest City of Tajikistan.

The Tajikistan Football Federation hired a Chartered Flight for the Indian National Team to fly to Khujand from Dushanbe. This was after the Indian Team missed the connecting flight from Dushanbe to Khujand courtesy a four-hour delay at the Indira Gandhi International Airport.

The International Friendly against Tajikistan is slated to be played on August 14 at the 20 Years of Independence Stadium in Khujand. The kick-off is slated for 5.30pm (IST).

The final 20-member list is as follows:
