Pakistan won the toss and elected to bowl first against New Zealand in the Super Sixes fixture of the ICC Men’s U19 World Cup 2026 at Harare Sports Club on Tuesday.
Pakistan entered the stage with two points, which they carried forward with the victory over Zimbabwe, and would ideally need to win both their Super Sixes matches to qualify for the semi-finals, scheduled to be played on February 3 and 4, respectively.
For the unversed, the top two teams from each Super Sixes group will advance into the knockouts, while the final of the 16-team tournament is slated to be played at the Harare Sports Club in Harare on February 6.
