All but one player who were rostered in Window 1 have been named here in preparation for the upcoming window.
However, there are also a number of younger players listed who could be waiting in turn for their chance to shine. Youngsters like Agassi Goantara and Muhammad Arighi have been featured as promising prospects to watch and have had stints with senior national team.
Several other young guns like Kelvin Sanjaya, Aldy Izzatur, and Ali Bagir have been key parts of the youth national team and are now inching closer to a spot at a senior national team roster.
Indonesia are in a bit of a tight spot after losing their first two games of the Qualifiers to Lebanon in the previous window. They will now have the opportunity to claim their first win ever in a World Cup Qualifier campaign, going up against Saudi Arabia and Jordan on February 24 and 27, respectively.
Both of these contests will be away games with the clash against Saudi Arabia to be played at King Abdullah Sports City in Jeddah, while the game against Jordan will be played at the Prince Hamza Hall.
