Preview:
Pakistan Under 19 will take on Zimbabwe Under 19 in the Group C contest of the ICC Under 19 World Cup on Monday. Pakistan U19 are all set to kick start their campaign with this match. They would have been disappointed after losing out to Sri Lanka U19 in the semi-finals of the ACC U19 Asia Cup last month. They won the warm-up game against Canada U19 by 8 wickets and are the favourites to top the Group C standings.
Zimbabwe Under 19, on the other hand, thrashed Papua New Guinea Under 19 by a massive margin of 228 runs to get their first points on the table. Skipper Emmanuel Bawa played classical knock to give his side an upper hand. They need to repeat similar performances if they want to beat mighty Pakistan U19.
