India-Pakistan match will be held on this date
In the ICC Under-19 World Cup 2026, India Under-19 and Pakistan Under-19 teams will face each other in the Super Six stage. This high-voltage match will be played on 1 February 2026 in Bulawayo. After Pakistan’s big victory in the recent Asia Cup final, everyone is going to keep an eye on this match. Let us tell you, 3-3 teams from all four groups have reached the Super Six stage. According to the rules, teams carry forward the points from the matches played against each other in the group stage and then play matches against two teams from the other group.
India performed brilliantly in Group B and made it to the top. With 3 wins, India has advanced by becoming the champion of Group B (B1). On the other hand, Pakistan had secured second position (C2) in Group C. India’s next match in the Super Six is against Zimbabwe in Bulawayo on January 27, while Pakistan will face New Zealand in Harare on the same day. This match is also special because both the teams recently met in the Under-19 Asia Cup final in Dubai in December 2025. In that match, Pakistan had registered a spectacular victory of 191 runs. In such a situation, Team India will have a chance to take revenge.
