Welcome to ICC U19 World Cup 2024, Super Six matches.
Today India will take on Nepal from Group 1
🏏ICC U19 WC 2024: Super Six: Group 1 - India vs Nepal at Mangaung Oval, Bloemfontein on 02/02/2024 at 1:30PM IST🏏
The ICC U-19 Cricket World Cup 2024 is heating up. On Friday, defending champions India face Nepal in their final Super Six match at Bloemfontein in South Africa. Having defeated New Zealand by 214 runs on January 30, the five-time champions are unbeaten, while Nepal had a tough evening, suffering a disappointing loss to Bangladesh in their Super Six opener.
A victory on February 2, 2024, would secure India a spot in the semi-finals without losing a single match in the tournament. The Uday Saharan-led side, who had defeated Bangladesh, Ireland and the USA in Group A, will start as obvious favourites against Nepal.
Nepal, on the other hand, progressed as the third-placed team from Group D. The team's only victory came against Afghanistan by one wicket, giving them an outside chance of reaching a maiden U-19 ICC World Cup semi-final. But as it turns out, all hopes have been dashed following their defeat to Bangladesh by five wickets.
India Vs Nepal Previous Head-To-Head
In their previous two head-to-head meetings, India U-19 thrashed Nepal U-19 by seven and eight wickets, respectively. On February 1, 2016, India restricted Nepal to 169/8 then chased down the target with 179 balls to spare for a seven-wicket win. In that ICC Under-19 World Cup, Group D match in Mirpur, Bangladesh, Rishabh Pant scored 78 runs off just 24 balls. The Indian side led by Ishan Kishan featured the likes of Avesh Khan, Sarfaraz Khan, Washington Sundar, Shubham Mavi, etc.
On January 18, 2000, India restricted Nepal to 101/9 during their ICC U-19 Cricket World Cup Super League group match then captain Mohammad Kaif hit an unbeaten half-century (57 off 71) to set up an eight-wicket win. The Indian side featured Yuvraj Singh, Reetinder Sodhi, Ajay Ratra, etc.

If they win today against Nepal they will take a step closer to book a place in the semis. On the other hand Nepal so far played three and lost three.

India U19 have won the toss and have opted to bat
India are on the verge of making it to the yet another U-19 World Cup semis and only a catastrophic defeat at the hands of Nepal can deny them that possibility. They have been the in-form team of this tournament so far and they've hardly been tested. Bat first and bat big has been the mantra with Musheer Khan leading the way with back-to-back hundreds. On the other hand, Nepal are out of contention, but they'll want to bowl out with their heads held high.
