Preview:

West Indies Under 19 will take on Australia Under 19 in the inaugural match of the ICC Under 19 World Cup on Friday. West Indies have won this marquee event only once back in 2016 under the leadership of Shimron Hetmyer. They have named a balanced squad for this year’s World Cup, while playing on their home conditions will be an added advantage for them. Ackeem Auguste will lead the side in this tournament. Matthew Nandu, Jaden Carmichael, and Teddy Bishop are the players you need to keep an eye on.

Australia Under 19, on the other hand didn’t win, emerged as the champions back in 2010 when they defeated Pakistan in the final by 25 runs. They are aiming for their fourth title and are hopeful of starting this tournament on a higher note. Cooper Connolly has got plenty of experience and this tournament will test his captaincy skills.
