India vs Pakistan, U-19 Asia Cup Live Score: India and Pakistan are set to renew their rivalry in today’s Group A encounter of the U-19 Asia Cup, with both teams arriving in confident mood after registering comprehensive victories in their opening matches.

India started their campaign with a commanding 10-wicket victory over Nepal, chasing down the target of 128 in just 19.1 overs. The standout performer was Aaryavir Sehwag, son of former India opener Virender Sehwag, who scored an unbeaten 70 off 52 deliveries, including seven fours and four sixes. Captain Lakshya Raichandani also contributed with an unbeaten 53 off 63 balls as India completed the chase comfortably.

Pakistan were equally impressive against tournament hosts UAE, securing a nine-wicket victory after chasing 225 in 37.3 overs. Opener Usman Khan led the charge with an unbeaten 139 off 120 balls, while Jahangir Bilal and Abdul Qadir also proved to be important contributors. Captain Farhan Yousaf, who led Pakistan to a massive 191-run win over India in the previous edition, will be particularly motivated.

For India, the bowling attack will be under scrutiny against a stronger batting unit. Ishan Sood, who took 3/18 against Nepal, will spearhead the pace challenge alongside Mohit Ulva. Spinners Yashveer Goud and Arjun Rajput, who shared five wickets in the opening match, will also play an important role.

The match is of great importance for the standings in Group A and semi-final qualification. The top two teams from each group advance to the last four, with the semi-finals on November 12 and the final on November 14.
