HYDERABAD, July 29: The last league match in the Asian Youth under-16 Soccer qualifying competition between India and Pakistan which was abandoned due rain and slushy ground condition on Tuesday, has been declared a draw.

The competition committee which met here late last night under Match Commissioner Zafar Imam of Bangladesh, had decided to hold the match afresh on Wednesday. However, with both the team managers showing little interest and the ground remaining unplayable even today, it was decided to declare it a draw and the teams will pick one point each, according to the honorary secretary of APFA, Mr Alaf Khan.
