Preview:
West Indies Under 19 will take on South Africa Under 19 in the Warm-up match of the ICC Under 19 World Cup 2021/22 on Tuesday. West Indies Under 19 lost to four-time champions India Under 19 in their first warm-up game by a huge margin of 108 runs. They conceded plenty of runs in the last ten overs. Apart from Matthew Nandu and Johann Layne, no one looked convincing with the bat.
South Africa Under 19 will be disappointed with the way things have gone on Sunday as their scheduled warm-up fixture was abandoned without a single ball. They have got capable players in their line-up in the likes of Dewald Brevis, George van Heerden, and Ethan Cunningham.
