The Dubai International Cricket Stadium awaits in readiness to host the 11th fixture of the ACC U-19 Asia Cup 2024 between Japan U-19 and Pakistan U-19. The Group A fixture is expected to kick off at 10:30 AM IST. Given what the two teams have managed to achieve in recent teams, the contest does appear to be very one-sided on paper. Moreover, this will also be the first encounter between the two teams in the YODI format.
Head to Head Record: Japan U-19 and Pakistan U-19 have never faced each other in the YODI format as a result, no past data about their previous matches is available.
Current Standings: Both Japan U-19 and Pakistan U-19 are at two opposite ends of the spectrum in Group A points table. Japan U-19 have faced defeats in all their two games and are languishing at the bottom of the points table with no wins to their name. On the flip side, Pakistan U-19 are currently the top-most ranked team and have acquired the numero uno position by convincingly brushing UAe U-19 aside.

Pakistan U-19 are coming off on the back of an impressive 69-run win against UAE U-19. Moreover, a convincing 43-run win against arch-rivals India U-19 in the opener has really set the wheels in motion for the young Green Shirts. Their berth in the semi-final round has been more or less booked and they will be looking forward to securing an easy win against Japan U-19 to consolidate their position at the top.
Shahzaib and Riaz Ullah ed a record 183-run stand for the second wicket to lift Pakistan to a commanding first-innings score of 324. The duo stamped their authority on the UAE bowlers and belted them all around the park. Shahzaib was the pick of the batters and top-scored for his side by slamming 132 (136) whereas his partner in crime also piled up a century (106 off 91) in very quick time. Their bowlers did the rest as Abdul Subhan recorded career-best YODI figures of 6-57 to derail UAE U-19 off course and leave them 70 runs short of their desired target.
Shahzaib and Riaz Ullah are in lethal form with the bat and past performances show that once the two get well-set at the crease, the bowling side tends to have a miserable time on the field. Shahzaib is the highest run scorer of this tournament so far with 291 runs under his belt. The skipper Saad Baig has never been far away from playing an impactful innings either. Abdul Subhan has picked up the most number of wickets in this tournament and currently has 8 wickets to his name while averaging 12.87.

It has been a tournament to forget for Japan U-19. The young underperforming team was simply overwhelmed whilst competing with some of the best in the business. UAE U-19 and India U-19 were all over them and lost to them by massive margins of 273 runs and 211 runs respectively. Besides, their quest for a consolation win against a red-hot Pakistan U-19 side will not be a cakewalk by any means.
They were no match against a resilient India U-19 side in their last game. The India U-19 were able to thrive on some very ordinary bowling from the Japan U-19 bowlers. Hugo Kelly was the only bowler to return with very impressive figures of 2-42 in 8 overs as India went on to pile a record 339 in their fifty overs. A target of 340 was never going to be an easy ask as Japan U-19 folded for 128 after facing their full fifty overs with Kelly (50 off 111) and Hinze (35 off 68) being the pick of the batters
Hugo Kelly has shown some promise with the bat at the top of the order scoring a neat fifty. He is the highest run scorer for Japan U-19 in this tournament averaging 25.5. Aarav Tiwari has been the most impactful bowler for Japan U-19 in this competition and currently holds the best bowling figures of 3-40 so far.

There is no risk of rain and the day will be warm and bright throughout. While the daytime temperature would range from 20 to 28 degrees Celsius, we can anticipate moderate humidity levels of about 42%.
When the introduction of the new ball, the pitch at DICS may provide the fast bowlers a hint of seam movement and spongy bounce. Because the team batting last has historically experienced greater success than teams batting first, batting is typically much easier in the second innings.
Four of the five matches played at this venue have been won by teams batting first and chasing totals has been difficult, given the recent results, we back the team winning the toss will opt to bat first.
Our Toss Prediction - Japan U-19 to Win the toss
Pakistan U-19 undoubtedly enter this fixture as an obvious favorite. Looking at the form of the two sides in this Asia Cup tournament, Pakistan U-19 definitely appears far more dominant than Japan U-19. Japan U-19 have been crushed by every single team they faced in this tournament whereas Pakistan U-19 have stayed unbeaten and have already secured their place in the semi-final. Therefore, it comes as no surprise that the underperforming Japan U-19 team will have a hard time whilst facing Pakistan U-19 in the U-19 Asia Cup match.
