DHAKA: India Under-19s will face the bowlers of Sri Lanka Under-19s in the first semi-final of ICC Under-19 World Cup 2016 at Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium at Mirpur in city on Tuesday (February 09).

Earlier, Sri Lanka Under-19s captain KIC Asalanka won the toss and elected to field first in the match that will begin at 9:00 in the morning.

Both sides had registered thumping wins to enter the semis.

India U-19s may have the wood over Sri Lanka U-19s, having clinched the Tri-nation series final in Colombo in December 2015.

Sri Lanka captain Charith Asalanka, on the other hand, believes that his side has the edge.

The stakes, though, are higher this time around as the winner will qualify for the World Cup final.
