The Sharjah Cricket Stadium awaits in readiness to host the enthralling second semi-final match of the ACC U1-9 Asica Cup 2024 tournament between India U-19 & Sri Lanka U-19 on December 6. The game is scheduled to start at 10:30 AM IST. India U-19 bounced back to winning ways after going down to Pakistan U-19 in their tournament opener and finished the league stage on a high. Sri Lanka U-19 are in the midst of a winning streak and are yet to face a defeat in this tournament. Both teams would aim to finish strongly.
Head-to-head record: The head-to-head record of the two teams is vastly one-sided with India winning 41 out of 48 YODIs played to date. Sri Lanka has faced a tough time while coping against India U-19 with their last win coming nearly a decade ago in this format. Moreover, Sri Lanka U-19 has had no success in their last five encounters against India U-19.
Group Standings- India finished second in the Group A points table after a thumping win against UAE U-19 in their last game. India won two league-stage games and lost one against Pakistan U-19 and concluded their standing with a NRR of 2.558. On the flip side, Sri Lanka U-19 have won three consecutive games on the bounce and finished at the top of the Group B points table with a NRR of 1.287.

Sri Lanka U-19 have been exceptional so far in this tournament and have punched way above their weight to finish at the top of the Group B points table. The young island nation has won three back-to-back games on the bounce, all of them coming while defending. Their bowlers including Maneesha and Thewmika have been delivering the goods for their side consistently to keep the sides in check while chasing.
Shanmuganathan is the fourth-highest run-scorer and the highest for Sri Lanka in this Asia Cup edition. The 18-year-old wicket-keeper batsman has accumulated 168 runs in 3 innings at a remarkable average of 56 and has one century to his name already. Dinsara is not too far behind Shanmuganathan either in terms of runs and averages 52 with one century-plus score to his name. Maneesha and Thewmika have been the go-to bowlers for Sri Lanka U-19 in this competition. The duo has a combined average of 13.44 and have collectively snapped 14 wickets in 3 games at a killer strike rate of nearly 190.

India U-19 roared back to form after their initial defeat against Pakistan U-19 by 43 runs. The Blues turned it around by winning their next two games against Japan U-19 and UAE U-19 on a resounding note. They demolished Japan U-19 by a whopping margin of 207 runs and then chased down 138 well inside 17 overs with 10 wickets hand to finish just below Pakistan in the points table.
Ayush Mhatre has been an amazing find for India U-19 in recent times and has proven to be a handy customer both with the bat and the ball and maintains a healthy average of 70.5 and 21.66 with the bat and the ball respectively. Yudhajit Guha has been the most prolific bowler for the Blues this tournament and has claimed 5 wickets at an average of 14 while Chetan Sharma has also looked potent with the ball who currently has 4 wickets to his name.

The slow and sluggish Sharjah track offers ample assistance to the spinners, and batters are expected to toil hard for their runs, especially while chasing. The surface tends to stay flat and hard for some part of the first innings, and the batting side should make the most of the scoring opportunity while facing the new ball. However, once the surface starts crumbling in the second half of the game, bowlers generally tend to exert their dominance over the batting side.
In the 12 YODI's played at Sharjah International Stadium, teams batting first have won 9 matches, while the team batting second won three matches. 58.3% of the times a team that wins the toss have opted to bat first. Four of the six matches in the ACC U-19 tournament have been won by the teams batting first. Captains winning the toss will have no second thoughts in opting to bat first.
India U-19 walk in as clear favorites with an unassailable win record of 41-6 against Sri Lanka U-19. Moreover, Sri Lanka U-19's latest win against India U-19 came nearly a decade ago. Although unbeaten in this competition, Sri Lanka U-19 are in the midst of a dismal winless streak against India U-19 that has lasted for nearly a lifetime for them. Hence, we expect a stiff challenge ahead for Sri Lanka U-19 as they look to take on India in this do-or-die semi-final fixture.
