This tournament will provide ample opportunity for the young players to showcase their talents, which will enable them to make it to the Pakistan Junior League in addition to the PCB U-19 3D and U-19 ODI tournaments.

The players who have performed well in previous CCA Under-19 tournaments and still meet the age limit have been included in the squads this time as well.

In this regard, the working hours of the matches have also been adjusted keeping in view the weather. All matches will run from 8:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. There will be a break in the matches from 1 pm to 4 pm, which will start again at 4 pm and continue until 6:30 pm.
