Benoni: Pakistan will face Australia in the semi-final of ICC U19 World Cup at Willowmoore Park, Benoni, today. The toss is expected to take place at 1230 PKT and the first ball will be bowled at 1300 PKT. On Feb 3, Pakistan U19 qualified for semi-finals on the back of an unbeaten streak as they defeated Bangladesh U19 in a low-scoring thriller at Willowmoore Park, Benoni.

Pakistan’s pace attack ripped through the Bangladesh U19 batting line-up to dismiss them for 150 after managing 155 in the first innings. Ubaid Shah earned himself the player of the match award for his outstanding spell of five for 44 in his 10 overs. His fellow right-arm seamers supported him well as Ali Raza finished with three wickets while Zeeshan bagged one wicket.
