The Asia Cup title won by India in November 2026 belonged to which age category?
- A.Under-16
- B.Under-19
- C.Under-23
- D.No age limit (senior team)
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is under-19. The competition India won was the Men's U-19 Asia Cup, and the U-19 in that name means the tournament is open only to cricketers below the age of nineteen. Option A, under-16, is a younger bracket altogether and is not the category named in this title. Option C, under-23, does not match the tournament either; the players praised for the win were under-19 cricketers. Option D is wrong because a senior Asia Cup is a separate competition played by full national sides with no age restriction, and the side congratulated for this result was the age-group team. The Prime Minister underlined the point himself by calling them young cricketers and saying their success would inspire several youngsters, which only makes sense for an age-group championship.
