India and Pakistan drawn in separate groups for 2027 Women's U19 T20 World Cup
The 16-team tournament features four groups, with the top three from each advancing to a Super Six stage before the semi-finals and final in Chattogram.
The ICC announced the schedule for the 2027 Women's Under-19 T20 World Cup, which runs from January 21 to February 6 across venues in Bangladesh and Nepal. India, the two-time defending champions, open their campaign against West Indies on January 22 at the TU International Cricket Stadium in Nepal. They also face Nepal on January 24 and Ireland on January 26, all at the same venue.
CricHubb Take
Placing India and Pakistan in separate groups removes the possibility of an early meeting and forces both teams to navigate different paths to the knockouts.
