In the Under-19 Asia Cup, Uday Saharan will lead India
The amazing batsman Uday Saharan will lead defending champions India in the ACC Men's Under-19 Asia Cup to be played in the UAE on December 8. Saharan, who is a 19-year-old cricketer from Punjab, has been on the selection radar for a while, and he was also drafted in as a backup player after the Indian squad was hit by COVID during last year's Under-19 World Cup in Antigua. Saumy Kumar Pandey was named as vice captain of the 15-member squad. India are the most successful team in the U19 Asia Cup, having won the title eight times.
Team India is grouped with Pakistan, Afghanistan, and Nepal in the tournament. They will start the campaign with a match against the Afghans on December 8 at the ICC Academy Oval-1.
In a much-awaited match, India will lock horns with Pakistan on December 10 at the same venue, and in their final group match, they will face Nepal on December 12. The final is scheduled to be played at the Dubai International Stadium on December 17.
