Drawn in Group B in the continental showpiece, India face Australia on January 13, before taking on Uzbekistan (Jan 18) and Syria (Jan 23). &ldquo;It&rsquo;s a massive tournament for us because we get to rub shoulders with the best in Asia. Teams like Australia and Uzbekistan are probably of the World Cup level, so you can test yourself against them. I must admit, of course, that they are extremely good. They&rsquo;re a couple of levels above than what we play in the ISL, but at least we know what we&rsquo;re up against,&rdquo; Chhetri said. &ldquo;What is sure is that we have improved in the last seven-eight years,&rdquo; he said.
