India and Pakistan Set to Clash in 2026 U19 Asia Cup Group Stage in Oman
The 2026 Under-19 Asia Cup, held in Oman from November 5 to 14, features eight teams divided into two groups. India and Pakistan, placed in Group A alongside UAE and Nepal, will face each other on November 8 at the Oman Cricket Academy Ground 1. The tournament follows a 50-over format, with the top two teams from each group advancing to the semi-finals. The India-Pakistan match is highly anticipated due to their rivalry and recent encounters, including Pakistan's win in the previous Asia Cup final and India's victory in the 2026 U19 World Cup.
