The Indian team is all set to lock horns with Scotland in their first ICC U-19 Cricket World Cup warm-up match at the Bulawayo Athletic club in Zimbabwe. The match starts at 1:00PM (IST) with the both the teams looking to fine tune their combinations ahead of the group stages.
Team India will be eyeing their 6th U-19 Cricket World Cup title and first since 2022. This age group tournament is the perfect platform for the future stars to showcase their mettle.
The Indian team is coming on the back of a disappointing outing at the U-19 Asia Cup where the Ayush Mhatre-led side lost to Pakistan Shaheens in the finale. They had won all of their group matches against Bangladesh, UAE, Malaysia and Pakistan as well.
But all of their efforts went in vain as Pakistan clinched the age group Asia Cup title with a bumper 191-run victory.
All they will be looking to do in the first warm-up game is fine tune their combinations against a relatively weaker Scottish side being led by wicket-keeper batter Thomas Knight.
