The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has indefinitely postponed the National Under-19 Three-Day Championship and the One-Day Cup, both of which were set to begin today.
In a brief statement, the PCB cited “unavoidable circumstances” as the reason for the postponement. The decision came after the conclusion of the first day of the initial round of the three-day matches, with sources confirming that play from various centers will not be recorded officially. The tournament is expected to restart with a new schedule.
The championship, featuring 18 regional teams representing 16 regions, was designed to showcase young talent at the national level. Teams were divided into three groups, with the top performers advancing to one-day matches, followed by a three-day final league.
Peshawar entered the competition as the defending champions in the three-day format, while Karachi Whites held the one-day title. The PCB has yet to announce when the tournament will resume.
