The ICC Under-19 World Cup is coming up tomorrow

The 14th edition of the ICC Under-19 World Cup is coming up on Friday. Known as the star-studded arena in the world of cricket, the event is set in the Caribbean.

From the Caribbean Prince Brian Lara to the recent Virat Kohli, the rise of many of today's brilliant batsmen or bowlers in cricket is due to the contribution of the ICC U-19 World Cup.

The journey of the Youth Asia Cup started in 1988. The Tigers, of course, took part 10 years later. In the first edition, Aminul Islam Bulbul and Harunur Rashid Liton fought on the field wearing Tigers jerseys. Sujan, Sumon, Mashrafe, and Shakib have also written their names in this event one by one.

Before the 2020 World Cup, the Tigers have been champions in the plate stage several times. The history was written by Emon and Joyra under the leadership of Akbar Ali. Bangladesh won the Youth World Cup for the first time after defeating India in South Africa. This time they have the opportunity to win the title for the second time. The only owner of this record is Pakistan who became champions in 2004 and 2006.

Hosts West Indies and Australia will play in the opening match of the 14th edition of the Youth World Cup. The current champion of the event, Bangladesh's first match is on Sunday. The opponent is strong England. The other two opponents of the current world champions in this group are the United Arab Emirates and Canada.

Meanwhile, the ICC has changed the schedule of the tournament less than 48 hours after the start of the event. Afghanistan could not reach the West Indies on time due to visa complications. So the matches of the Afghan youth are a little behind, the matches of the other team of C group have been brought forward.
