The 20-year-old Abu Dhabi Harlequins’ winger has been named captain for the ****** as the UAE take on hosts Malaysia, Singapore and Kazakhstan in Pool 1, hoping for good results and a chance to play for a medal. Al Hendi is expecting the toughest test to come from Malaysia, but he believes the new-look UAE team can spring a surprise. In their last outing in Hong Kong in December, the UAE won two of their seven games, but three defeats were by just two points. “I reckon Malaysia will be the team to beat. Apart from being the home team they’re skillful and k**w what they’re doing. If we can shut them down though, hold possession and stick to our plan there’s **t much that sides will be able to do to defend against us. “I’m **t sure what to expect of Singapore as I’ve **t seen them play. Kazakhstan will be physical but the boys are up for it and we’re here to make a statement.” The UAE will be hoping for an improvement on last year ****** when they finished in a three-way tie for sixth out of nine teams taking part. “I think we can surprise a few people and being captain for my last season is e**ugh to get me in gear,” Al Hendi added.
