Despite playing a challenging Bangladesh in their second encounter of the ICC U-19 World Cup here on Saturday, a well-balanced India will start as clear favorites in an attempt to maintain their assured start to the competition. With right-arm pacer Henil Patel returning outstanding figures of 5/16 in seven overs and the other bowlers performing admirably, five-time champions India began their campaign as anticipated, defeating the USA by six wickets after bundling them out for a pitiful 107 in a match marred by rain.
Bangladesh U19 will play their opening match of the competition in the meanwhile. Unfortunately, neither of their games in the warm-up matches had a conclusion. Nevertheless, the team advanced to the semifinals of the Asia Cup U19 competition before being eliminated by the Pakistan U19 squad.
