Tauranga, January 20
India will face Bangladesh in the ICC U-19 World Cup quarterfinals after the neighbouring nation qualified for the Super League following England’s massive 282-run win over Canada in their Group C match.
While three-time champions India had qualified for the knockout stage after hammering Papua New Guinea by 10 wickets, Bangladesh’s qualification from Group C depended on the result of the match between England and Canada. England, champions in 1998, were virtually assured of topping their group before this match owing to their high net run-rate but they did not show any complacency against Canada.
England, who completed the league with three wins to top the group, will play Australia in the Super League quarterfinals on January 23, while Bangladesh, who defeated Canada and Namibia, will take on India on January 26.
Canada and Namibia will figure in the Plate championship which gets underway on Monday.
In the Super League quarterfinals, New Zealand play Afghanistan while South Africa will run into two-time champions Pakistan. — PTI
