Not many would have thought Bangladesh Under-19s will be the first side to qualify for the final of a Triangular series that involved India Under-19s and England Under-19s. Bangladesh thumped the home team England in all three meetings and also got better of India in one game. With nine points after six matches, Bangladesh more or less confirms their top finish.

India won both their matches in the first set of matches but none since then. They lost to Bangladesh and England once each while a game against Bangladesh team was abandoned. With only two points from five games, England need to win their remaining two matches against India. Even one loss will help India join Bangladesh in the final on the next Sunday.
