India U-19 vs Bangladesh U-19 Chance of Winning
Bangladesh stunned India U-19 in the semi-final of the Asia Cup 2023, and later clinched the continental trophy by beating UAE. Bangladesh finished unbeaten in the series.
But can they repeat the feat against India in South Africa? The chances are really low. India are well accustomed to the South African conditions as they arrived in the country early and participated in a tri-nation series involving hosts South Africa and Afghanistan. They remained unbeaten in the tournament. They registered comfortable six, seven, nine and six-wicket wins respectively.
Adarsh Singh finished with 230 runs - most by any batter in the series.Vice-captain Saumy Pandey grabbed nine wickets in two matches - second-highest in the series.
Bangladesh are set to endure a tough time against India this time. Men in Blue would be desperate to avenge their semi-final defeat, and a comfortable win is likely on the cards.
