Nigeria U-19s
Despite fielding their best XI in the match against Sri Lanka U-19s, the Nigerians proved to be no match for the Asian giants. The bowlers and the batsmen, both failed to trouble Nipun Dananjaya and co. in that game. Skipper Sylvester Okpe will expect his men to step up and deliver the goods in the match against U.A.E. U-19s. The African side is unlikely to alter its match squad.
Possible XI: Mba, Olaleye, Runsewe, Danladi, Akhigbe, Okpe, Jimoh, Aho, Audu, Isesele and Abolarin..
UAE U-19s
U.A.E U-19s would have been extremely disappointed with their performance versus Scotland U-19s. Osama Hassan and Vritya Aravind had done the job for them in the batting department yet the poor execution of the bowlers led to the team's defeat. Sanchit Sharma and skipper Aryan Lakra will have the onus of troubling the opposition batsmen in their upcoming game.
Possible XI: Lakra, Aravind, Haider, Figy, Tandon, Sharafu, Hassan, Farazuddin, Palaniapan, Sharma and Tahir.

NIG-U19 vs UAE-U19 Dream11 tips
Wicket-keeper: Vritiya Aravind has been one of the best batsmen for U.A.E. U-19s in this tournaments and the Dream11 team owners should prefer his services ahead of Sulaimon Rensewe on any day.
Batsmen: Jonathan Figy had played a match-winning role for U.A.E. U-19s against Canada U-19s. Although he has not played a big inning since then, he can be backed to perform well versus Nigeria U-19s. Osama Hassan fired all guns blazing against Scotland U-19s which makes him a decent pick. From Nigeria U-19s, Miracle Akhigbe was the top-scorer against Sri Lanka U-19s so, he becomes the top pick.
All-rounders: U.A.E U-19s' captain, Aryan Lakra has the maximum potential of emerging as the highest points scorer from this match while Alishan Sharafu can be backed to do well in both the departments. Among the Nigerians, Peter Aho can make an impact as an all-rounder.
Bowlers: Sanchit Sharma had an off day versus the Scots however, the U.A.E. U-19s bowler can wreak havoc against Nigeria U-19s at the North-West University Ground No.2. Nigerian skipper Sylvester Okpe will be a safe bet while Rasheed Abolarin can scalp a wicket or two in the death overs.
Captain: As mentioned ahead, Aryan Lakra has the highest points scoring potential which makes him the number one choice for captaincy followed by wicket-keeper batsman Vritiya Aravind. For the vice-captain's role, Sanchit Sharma and Jonathan Figy are the best picks.
