**Dubai, UAE** – Defending champions India will face Bangladesh in the final of the ACC U19 Asia Cup on Sunday, December 8th at the Dubai International Stadium. Both teams have displayed dominant form throughout the tournament, setting the stage for a highly anticipated showdown.

India, after an initial loss to Pakistan, have rebounded strongly, winning their subsequent matches convincingly, including a seven-wicket victory over Sri Lanka in the semi-final. Their batting prowess has been spearheaded by Ayush Mhatre (175 runs) and the prodigious 13-year-old Vaibhav Suryavanshi (167 runs).

Bangladesh, boasting the most U19 Asia Cup titles, have matched India’s impressive run, suffering only one group-stage defeat to Sri Lanka before overcoming Pakistan in their semi-final. Their formidable bowling attack, led by Md. Al Fahad and Md. Iqbal Hasan Emon (both with 10 wickets each), will be key to their success.
