# U19 Asia Cup: UAE win toss, bowl first against India 2026-11-10T05:08:08+00:00 | Sports | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 5 independent outlets UAE won the toss on Tuesday, 10 November, and elected to bowl first against India in the final Group A match of the Men’s U19 Asia Cup 2026 at the Al Amerat Cricket Ground in Muscat, Oman. India, who began their campaign with a 10-wicket win over Nepal, lost to Pakistan by three wickets in their second game, a result that leaves them needing a win to secure a semi-final spot. Arjun Rajput scored a century in that defeat. Live updates from India Today showed India at 29 for no loss after six overs, with Aaryavir Sehwag on 16 and captain Lakshya Raichandani on three. The pitch showed no bounce, in contrast to the previous game against Pakistan. The match is being streamed live on Sony LIV and telecast on Sony Sports Network in India. ## Indian Opinion Analysis All five sources report the same match details in neutral fashion.
