Pakistan U19 vs Bangladesh U19 match, The journey from the Super Six to the semi-finals of the ongoing U-19 World Cup has been a challenging moment for the Bangladesh team. The young Tigers have a tough road ahead after beating Nepal by five wickets in the 1st match of the Super Six.
India U19 might theoretically miss the semi-finals if they lose to Nepal, but that would need Bangladesh U19 to beat Pakistan U19 and both teams to finish the Super Six stage with a greater net run rate than India U19.
Pakistan can guarantee their spot in the U-19 World Cup Semi-finals with a win over Bangladesh on Saturday in Benoni, but even a close defeat might see them advance if their net run rate continues to surpass Bangladesh.
Bangladesh is still in the running for a spot in the semi-finals after their Super Six match, and Stuart Law’s team is well-prepared for their match against Pakistan.
If Bangladesh defeats Pakistan by a margin that pushes their net run rate over their Asian foe, they will go to the last four and probably finish second in Group 1.
If Bangladesh loses versus Pakistan or wins by a slim margin, they will not advance to the semi-finals.
Bangladesh has a net run rate of +0.348, or four points and Pakistan has a net run rate of +1.064, or six points.
When batting first, the youth team must win by at least 50 runs if they score 250 runs or less. They will also win by 51 runs if they score 250 runs.
Bangladesh U19 will need to win the match in 38–40 overs if Pakistan bats first. Bangladesh will need to get 300 runs in 39.3 overs if Pakistan sets that as their aim. Furthermore, Pakistan U19 team will be surpassed in 39 overs if they reach 250 runs.
Bangladesh U19 team will need to win in 38.4 overs to advance to the semi-finals if Pakistan’s run is halted within 200 runs.
