Pakistan Vs UAE LIVE Score, U19 Asia Cup: Young Shaheens Eye Semis Spot Against Spirited Emiratis

Thereee was a flurry of wickets in the last five overs, with Yug Sharma ending the innings with three scalps. Hamza Zahoor's 42-run knock was crucial for Pakistan U19, taking their total to 241. Will it be enough against an in-form Emirati batting line-up? A big chase awaits.

Pakistan are struggling for runs against UAE with 177 on the board and nine overs remaining. UAE could get back into the game here with some quick wickets in the middle-overs.

With Hussain labouring along towards his half-century at one end, Ahsan was the one taking the risky shots, but he pays the price after holing it to Misbah. He departs for 23 off 26 balls, and Hamza Zahoor is the new batter for PAK U19. The current run rate is just below four-and-half.

Yousaf was looking like the one most likely to hit the big shots, but the skipper is caught plumb on the pads by Yug Sharma, and he departs for 20 off 25. Huzaifa Ahsan is the new batter, and he takes a single off his first ball.

It has been a scratchy innings by Pakistan U19 so far, but they cross the 100-run mark with the innings half-way done. What the young Shaheens need is for a partnership between Yousaf and Hussain.

Commentators' curse?! Minhas, the set batter for Pakistan U19, gets caught behind by the wicketkeeper, just six runs short of what would have been a deserved half-century. This is the wicket that UAE would have wanted, and they are right back in the game. The skipper, Yousaf, comes on as the new batter, and opens his account with a four.

Pakistan's slow and steady innings has continued to trickle with a run rate of just over four-an-over. Minhas and Hussain have built up a solid partnership, with the former nearing his half-century. UAE need a wicket to break this pairing.

Baloch was not looking comfortable at all, and his innings comes to an end at just two off 10 balls, holing out Rai – his second catch of the day. Ahmed Hussain is the new batter for PAK U19.

It was going pretty well for Pakistan so far, with a 40-run partnership developing between Minhas and Usman. However, Naseem gets the breakthrough in the final over of the first powerplay, with Usman being caught by the skipper Rai. Pakistan U19 lose their first, with Ali Hassan Baloch coming on as the new batter.

Pakistan U19 captain Farhan Yousaf won the toss and opted to bat first in today's match.
