"Sure, we have an all win (5-0) record against them, but we will not take them lightly as it is a 'must win' tie for us after the defeat against South Korea in February," Zeeshan told reporters here.
Zeeshan regretted that India were unable to field a full strength squad against South Korea.
"It was a missed opportunity and we could have won that tie with full team and later at home in October, we could have played Japan on home courts. But I am glad all the boys are back and are keen to put on a good show."
Zeeshan said that Indians would practice every day from April 1 from 3 pm to get used to conditions under lights.
