In a repeat of last edition's final, fierce neigbours -- India and Bangladesh -- will clash for a place in the semi-finals of ICC U-19 World Cup 2022. The winners will take on Australia, and the losers face Pakistan for the fifth-place play-off in the 14th edition of the youth cricket world cup. In the other semi-final, England will face Afghanistan. England defeated South Africa by six wickets while Afghanistan produced a sensational four-run win against Sri Lanka in their respective quarter-finals. Australia hammered Pakistan by 119 runs.
India, the most successful side in the history of the tournament, were stunned by Bangladesh in the 2020 final. In that rain-affected match, Bangladesh had won the toss and dismissed India for 177 all out. India, however, hit back by getting the top five for 85 runs with future star Ravi Bishnoi producing a magical spell. But Bangladesh skipper Akbar Ali hit an unbeaten 43 off 77 to complete the task, then the colts almost came to blows.
In the last meeting, at the U-19 Asia Cup 2021-22, India beat Bangladesh by 103 runs to enter the final.
So, expect another high-voltage clash tonight.
India will be near full-strength with the return of regular skipper Yash Dhull, his deputy Shaik Rasheed and three more players, who were forced to isolate after testing positive for COVID-19.
