PAK vs UAE U-19 Asia Cup Match: Pakistan Will Look To Confirm Their Semi-Final Berth

After beginning the tournament on a high note, the Pakistan U-19 team is full of confidence as they would want to continue asserting their dominance and book their place in the semi-finals.

Pakistan's Shahzaib Khan was the standout performer against India, scoring 159 while opening the innings. This pushed the side's final score to a decent 281 in their respective fifty overs, as Usman Khan supported his partner well with a fine 60.

Ultimately, this proved to be enough as India were bowled out for 238, with Ali Raza bagging a three-fer and Abdul Subhan, alongside Faham-ul-Haq, getting two each to their name. Hence, helping Pakistan secure a 43-run victory.

PAK vs UAE U-19 Asia Cup Match: UAE Will Try To Enforce An Upset

Although, the hosts United Arab Emirates U-19 annihilated the Japan U-19 team in their opening game, their upcoming one isn't going to be any easier with Pakistan in full flow.

The UAE team were breathing fire against Japan as they managed to put on a massive 325 on the board courtesy of Aryan Saxena's breezy 150 and his opening partner Akshat Rai getting 53. Later, skipper Aayan Khan scored a fine 45, adding insult to the injury of the opposition.

In reply, Japan were blown away for a paltry 52 inside 25 overs with Uddish Suri picking unbelievable figures of four wickets for just 2 runs. The rest of the bowlers chipped in to pick one each before UAE bagged two points as they gave their NRR a massive boost with a victory by 273 runs.
