**Dubai, UAE:** India and Bangladesh will face off in the final of the Under-19 Asia Cup on December 8th at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium. India, the tournament’s most successful team with eight titles, will be challenged by the reigning champions, Bangladesh, who are aiming for a repeat victory. Bangladesh notably defeated India in the semifinals of the 2023 tournament.

India’s batting lineup will be spearheaded by Ayush Mhatre (175 runs) and the prodigious 13-year-old Vaibhav Suryavanshi (167 runs). Bangladesh’s bowling attack, led by Mohammad Al Fahd and Mohammad Iqbal Hasan Emon (both with 10 wickets each), poses a significant threat.

While India suffered an early defeat against Pakistan, they have since showcased strong performances, including a dominant semi-final win over Sri Lanka. Bangladesh, despite a group stage loss to Sri Lanka, secured their place in the final with a comfortable seven-wicket victory over Pakistan.

The final match will be broadcast live on Sony Sports Network and can be streamed on SonyLIV.
