With both nations boasting rich histories in youth development this fixture is more than just a group game it is a statement of intent from two tournament favorites.

Their confidence is sky-high following a dominant warm-up victory against the USA where their top order and pace battery looked clinical. Led by the experienced Farhan Yousaf the Pakistani squad is built on the traditional pillars of their national identity: aggressive top-order batting and searing pace. The spotlight remains firmly on Sameer Minhas who became a global sensation after smashing a monumental 172 off 113 balls against India in the Asia Cup final.

His ability to anchor an innings while maintaining a high strike rate makes him the biggest threat England's bowling plans. On the bowling front Ali Raza returns for his second U19 World Cup. After his heroic 4-wicket haul against Australia in the 2024 semi-final he is now the leader of the attack.

We are in for Day 2 of the Under-19 World Cup 2026 and we are already up for a mighty clash as Pakistan Under-19 will face England Under-19 at the Takashinga Sports Club in Harare on Friday (January 16). The English boys last won the Under-19 World Cup in 1998 led by Owais Shah. It is England's only title in the history of the U19 World Cup.

However this edition is their best chance to bag their first silverware after 28 long years. This time they will be captained by Surrey's Thomas Rew. Meanwhile England's batting core includes Ben Dawkins and Joe Moores and the bowling is heavily relying on the shoulders of Farhan Ahmed and Manny Lumsden.

Pitch and Conditions The Takashinga Sports Club pitch is expected to offer something for everyone. In the early morning session the moisture in the air and the fresh surface will likely assist the fast bowlers. However as the sun comes out it usually flattens into a good batting deck. Spinners like England’s Farhan Ahmed and Pakistan's Huzaifa Ahsan will find purchase as the game progresses and the pitch dries.
