TEAMS PREVIEW
Afghanistan U19 Preview
Mahboob Khan and his team have impressed with strong performances over the last 12 months. While they lost the last warm-up game against Sri Lanka U19, the side will draw inspiration from its win against Australia U19 in the first warm-up game. They have a strong bowling attack, and Khan would look to make it count in this game.
Osman Sadat has played well in recent games, and the team expects him to deliver a good start at the top with Khalid Ahmadzai. Faisal Shinozada, Uzairullah Niazai, and Mahboob Khan must do well in the middle order to put the team in a strong position. The side would also like to see fireworks in the lower middle order from Aziz Mia Khil and Khatir Stanikzai.
On the bowling front, Salman Khan and Wahidullah Zadran play crucial roles with the new ball and must strike early in the game. Nooristani Omarzai and Khatir Stanikzai must keep the scoring in check in the middle overs.

South Africa U19 Preview
Muhammed Bulbulia and his men would feel confident with their performance in the warm-up games. It has come as a big respite for the team after its whitewash against the Indians in the recent series.

Jorich Van Schalkwyk and Adnaan Lagadien haven't enjoyed great form, and the team expects the pair to deliver a good start.

Their pace attack will enjoy bowling on this track, giving them an edge.
