Bangladesh is the defending champion of U-19 Asia Cup. They won the title for the first time last year. This is an opportunity to excel once again. They will enter the field at Dubai International Cricket Stadium at 11 am Bangladesh time on Sunday with the dream of winning the title. Bangladesh is motivated by the semi-final of the last season, in which they defeated India.
The match will be broadcast live on Sony Ten 3 and Sony Ten 5.
India is the most successful team in the Youth Asia Cup. They are champions 7 times in the previous 10 seasons. Also shared one title with Pakistan. Bangladesh won one of the remaining two tournaments and Afghanistan won the other. Bangladesh has a chance to claim the second Asia Cup trophy. The youth of Bangladesh are playing the third final in the last four times.
Bangladesh team's biggest strength is team balance. Youngsters are in rhythm in both batting and bowling departments. Defeated Pakistan easily in the semi-finals with a team performance. Azizul Hakims can therefore keep themselves ahead before the final. After blasting Pakistan, youth team captain Azizul said, 'We will try our best in the final. We will fight with all our strength.'
When the opponent is India, then one can wait with bated breath for another fight. The team is X Factor Vaibhav Suryavanshi. This 13-year-old prodigy is in great shape. Vaibhav's devastating innings of 67 off 36 balls came off the bat in the seven-wicket win over Sri Lanka in the semi-final. This batter can suffer in Bangladesh!
India and Bangladesh secured semi-finals by becoming runners-up in the group stage. Both teams have lost one match each. But in the semis, Bangladesh defeated the group champion Pakistan by 7 wickets, and India also defeated another group champion Sri Lanka by the same margin. Cricket lovers are expecting a lively fight between the two teams at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium on Sunday afternoon.
