So, that is it from myself, Karthik Raj and my co-commentator, Nikhil as we wrap up the coverage of this fixture. A note of thanks to our scorer, Ghanendra Singh Thakur as well.
Do switch over to the coverage of the match between Sri Lanka U19s and Bangladesh U19s. There are a couple more exciting fixtures lined up tomorrow in the 2026 U19 Asia Cup with India U19 taking on Pakistan U19 while UAE U19 will face off against Nepal U19.
With this dominant result, Afghanistan U19 have one and a half foot in the Semi-Finals. It is likely to be a contest between Sri Lanka U19 and Bangladesh U19 for the second spot in Group B.

Time for the Post-match Presentation!
1:08 PM IST, 11:38 AM Local Time: What a performance once again from Afghanistan U19 as they register back-to-back victories to start their 2026 U19 Asia Cup campaign. A thumping 10-wicket win with 47 overs to spare, can you believe it? Noor Niazai set up the victory with his 6/7 while their openers came out and finished the 43-run chase with 47 overs to spare.
Chasing 43 for victory, it was Farid Zadran who started the fireworks as he consistently tried to use his feet to good effect. Eventually, Abidullah Nadarjan also joined in although he got a reprieve with the fielder at mid-on dropping a catch off Nagineswaran's bowling. Eventually, Abidullah smashed a quality six over deep extra-cover to wrap up a 10-wicket victory.
