The U19 Asia Cup 2026 final is Pakistan Under-19 against India Under-19 on Saturday 14 November 2026, starting at 10:00 am PKT in Oman. Pakistan beat Bangladesh by 9 wickets in their semi-final on Thursday. India beat Afghanistan by 8 wickets. It is a repeat of the 2025 final, which Pakistan won by 191 runs.
Below are the start time in Pakistan and nearby countries, both teams' semi-final line-ups, how each side reached the final, where you can follow it, and what happened when the two teams met in the group stage six days earlier. We checked the fixture, the scorecards and the streaming listings on Thursday evening, 12 November.
Final starts at 10 am PKT on Saturday 14 November
The final is a 50-over Youth ODI. Both semi-finals started at 10:00 am Pakistan time, and the ICC match centre lists the final at the same time for a viewer in Pakistan. The Asian Cricket Council's fixture list, which we read on 10 November, also gives 10 am.
| Place | Start time |
|---|---|
| Pakistan (PKT) | 10:00 am |
| Oman and UAE | 9:00 am |
| Saudi Arabia and Qatar | 8:00 am |
| India | 10:30 am |
| United Kingdom | 5:00 am |
The time conversions are ours. A 50-over match with a normal break usually finishes in the late afternoon, around 5 pm to 6 pm PKT, unless one side is bowled out early, as Bangladesh were on Thursday.
How Pakistan and India reached the final
Pakistan have won all four of their matches. India lost only once, to Pakistan. These results come from the ICC and ACC scorecards we read during the week.
| Date | Pakistan U19 | India U19 |
|---|---|---|
| 6 November | Beat UAE by 9 wickets | Beat Nepal by 10 wickets |
| 8 November | Beat India by 3 wickets | Lost to Pakistan by 3 wickets |
| 10 November | Beat Nepal by 101 runs | Beat UAE by 70 runs |
| 12 November, semi-final | Beat Bangladesh by 9 wickets | Beat Afghanistan by 8 wickets |
Our semi-final report has the full Pakistan scorecard. Rizwanullah took 5 for 30, and openers Hayam Khan and Usman Khan put on 123.
Pakistan beat India by 3 wickets six days earlier
The two sides met in Group A on 8 November. India made 208, with Arjun Rajput scoring 107. Pakistan fell to 61 for 5 in reply. Wicketkeeper Hamza Zahoor then made 100 not out and Pakistan won with 11 balls left. The full match is in our group stage report.
India look stronger now than they did that day. In Thursday's semi-final their top three all scored runs: Lakshya Raichandani 93, Aaryavir Sehwag 51 and VK Vineeth 57 not out. Sehwag came into the semi-final as the tournament's top run scorer, according to the leaderboard in our most runs and wickets list.
Both teams' semi-final playing XIs
Neither side has named its XI for the final yet. These are the eleven players each team used on Thursday, as the ICC scorecards list them. A winning side often keeps the same eleven for a final.

| 1 | Usman Khan | Lakshya Raichandani (captain) |
| 2 | Hayam Khan | Aaryavir Sehwag |

Where to watch the U19 Asia Cup final in Pakistan
We could not find a confirmed live TV channel or stream in Pakistan. This is what we found when we checked on Thursday evening.
- Tapmad: We opened its home page at about 9:25 pm PKT. It lists the Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Tests, but no U19 Asia Cup match.
- ACC website: asiancricket.org carries fixtures, results and the points table, but we did not see a broadcaster named for this tournament.
- ICC match centre: icc-cricket.com has free ball-by-ball scorecards for both semi-finals, so it should have the final too.
If a channel or stream is announced on Friday, check that it comes from the broadcaster or the board itself. Our knockout schedule page has more on the tournament's timings.
