DUBAI – Pakistan U19 are all set to take on Afghanistan and hosts UAE in the U19 tri-series commencing on 13 November at the ICC Academy in Dubai.

The 50-over tournament will be played on a double-league basis and the final will be staged on 26 November.

Saad Baig-led side, since their arrival in Dubai on Saturday afternoon, have gone through three practice sessions in order to acclimatise with the local conditions.

Among the 15-member squad, three players – Saad Baig, Shahzaib Khan and Tayyab Arif had the experience of playing at the ICC Academy, as they were part of the squad which featured in the ACC U19 Asia Cup held last year at the same venue.

Saad Baig said: “The preparation for the tournament has been good, the players have had good training sessions here and now we are looking forward to tomorrow’s game and the rest of the tournament.

“Both Afghanistan and UAE are strong sides and playing against them will provide us a great opportunity to get our combination right before going into the all-important ACC U19 Asia Cup taking place later this month.”
