Pakistan U19

Pakistan cruised into the final after beating Bangladesh in the second semi-final. After bowling Bangladesh out for 121, Pakistan chased down the target comfortably in 16.3 overs in a match reduced to 27 overs per side.

League Stage Head-to-Head

India and Pakistan faced each other once earlier in the tournament, with India registering a dominant 90-run victory.

• India: 240 all out
  • Aaron George: 85
  • Kanishk Chouhan: 46
