IRI vs SYR Dream11: In the first window of the first-ever FIBA Asia Cup qualifiers, Iran will play hosts to Syria at Azadi Arena, in Tehran on Thursday evening (IST). Iran are one of the powerhouses of Asian Basketball and will be looking to avoid any shocking result here. The world no-22 are the three-time Asian champions having won the tournament in 2007, 2009 and 2013, while they have been runners-up in tow other tournaments, in 2015 and 1017.
Syria, on the other hand, are ranked 100 in the world and have never played in the Aisa Cup. They are one of the least favoured teams in this tournament.
