Malaysia will open their campaign in the 19th Sultan Azlan Shah Cup Tournament with a match against Pakistan on May 6.
And ironically the coach of the Malaysian team could well be the ex-coach of the green shirts, Roelant Oltmans who is due to take charge of the Malaysian team on May 1.
The Dutchman will come under close scrutiny as he plots the progress of the Malaysian team as 24 hours later it will be South Korea whom they will face at the Azlan Shah Stadium in Ipoh.
The second day will also see a repeat of the opening day clash between traditional Asian giants, India and Pakistan. India whipped Pakistan 4-1 in their clash in the ongoing World Cup in New Delhi.
The seven teams that have confirmed participation are Australia, South Korea, Pakistan, China, India, Egypt and Malaysia.
