Pakistan U19 (Batting XI, Fielding XI): Sameer Minhas, Mohammad Sayyam(w), Usman Khan, Ahmed Hussain, Hamza Zahoor, Farhan Yousaf(c), Daniyal Ali Khan, Mohammad Shayan, Abdul Subhan, Umar Zaib, Ali Hassan Baloch, Niqab Shafiq, Huzaifa Ahsan, Momin Qamar, Ali Raza

Pakistani have scored the first 50 runs rapidly, thanks to opening batters Sameer Minhas (34 off 27) and Mohammad Shayan (12 off 23). USA are already under pressure.

After a very good opening stand, both the openers are inside the dressing room. Skipper Sameer Minhas has been retired hurt after a blistering 55-ball 74-run knock while Mohammad Shayan scored 23 off 56.

Usman Khan and Ahmed Hussain are the new batters in.

Pakistan lose Usman Khan for a run-a-ball 14 and Farhan Yousaf for 19 off 23. Ahmad Hussain is still at the crease on 42 off 65 while Huziafa Ahsan is batting at 9 runs.

Ahmad Hussain is approaching his half-century and he has a task in hand with Huziafa Ahsan to close the Pakistan Shaheens innings on a high note.

Brilliant end to the Pakistan Shaheens innings as they finish at 294 runs, thanks to the late knocks from Hamza Zahoor (18 off 21) and Ali Hassan Baloch (36 off 19).

USA openers Amrinder Gill and Sahil Garg are out in the middle to chase down this massive target of 295. Ali Raza conceded 8 runs off his first over.

It has been a decent start so far for the USA as Amrinder Gill and Sahil Garg are playing according to the situation.

Sahil Garg holds the innings together on 34 off 44, showing patience and control, while Utkarsh Srivastava chips in with 6 off 8. The pair are focused on rotation and stability, slowly rebuilding after the early wickets.

A productive over brings 7 runs, but it also costs a wicket. Amogh Arepally departs for a first-ball duck, while Sahil Garg continues to anchor the innings on 63 off 73, holding the key for USA as they look to rebuild once again.

Ali Raza delivers a huge breakthrough by dismissing the well-set Sahil Garg for 75, brilliantly caught by Usman Khan, leaving USA U19 at 150/5. The pacer follows it up with a tight spell to the new batter Nitish Sudini, who fails to get off the mark, as Pakistan concede only three runs in the over and tighten their grip on the innings.

Daniyal Ali Khan strikes again, removing Adit Kappa for 2 with a sharp catch by Mohammad Shayan. But Sahir Bhatia walks in with intent and immediately makes his presence felt, smashing a confident boundary first ball. USA collect 11 runs in the over despite losing a wicket, with Nitish Sudini steady on 17, as they look to squeeze every possible run in the closing stages.

Pakistan U19 seal a commanding 69-run victory! After posting a strong 294/8, Pakistan’s bowlers backed it up with a disciplined display to bowl out USA U19 for 225 in 43.5 overs. A complete team performance, solid batting up front, followed by relentless pressure with the ball, as Pakistan wrap up the warm-up clash in convincing fashion.
