India U19 will face Bangladesh U19 in Match 7 of the U19 World Cup 2026 at the Queens Sports Club, Bulawayo, on Saturday, January 17. Both teams will be eager to earn important points in the group stage.

India U19 begins their campaign on a positive note with a six-wicket win over USA U19 through the DLS system. India chose to bowl first, and their bowlers performed excellently, restricting USA to a total of 107 runs, with five wickets taken by Henil Patel. Despite rain interruptions, India comfortably chased the revised target and opened their account with a win.

Bangladesh U19 will begin their tournament with this match. Their warm-up games were affected by rain and ended without results. However, they have shown decent form in the U19 Asia Cup. They reached the semi-finals but lost to Pakistan U19. Bangladesh is likely to start the series on a strong note and express their intent to challenge the confident Indian side.
