Background
IND vs AUS U19 World Cup Final LIVE Score: It's yet another 50 Overs World Cup final between India and Australia. While the two teams squared off in the ODI World Cup final in November last year, almost three months later their junior sides are in the finals of the Under 19 Men's Cricket World Cup final. If there is anything that this shows, it is the dominance of these two sides in world cricket across and a proper domestic and youth development structure in place in both these countries.
Almost inevitably then, some of these players will go on to become the superstars of tomorrow and compete in the Men's ODI World Cup among other major cricket competitions. India have had an unbeaten run up until the summit clash, much like the ODI World Cup last year and had a major scare in the semifinals, like they had in that tournament. They are up against an Australian side who are also unbeaten in the tournament, however, one of their fixture had been washed out. Much like the India U-19 side, they too faced a scare in the semis but ultimately came out on top.
Players To Watch Out For:
Uday Saharan and Musheer Khan the two of the leading run-scorers of the tournament are both in the Indian camp and the team would need at least one or both of them to come good in a high-pressure summit clash. For Australia, Harry Dixon has done the bulk of the team's scoring while Hugh Weibgen has been in great form too.
With the bowl, left-arm spinner Saumy Pandey has been the highest wicket-taker for India with 17 scalps to his credit while Tom Straker of Australia has been their most successful bowler with 12 wickets.
IND vs AUS U19 WC Final Probable Playing 11s:
IND U19: Adarsh Singh, Arshin Kulkarni, Musheer Khan, Uday Saharan (captain), Priyanshu Moliya, Sachin Dhas, Aravelly Avanish (wicketkeeper), Murugan Abhishek, Raj Limbani, Naman Tiwari, Saumy Pandey
AUS U19: Harry Dixon, Sam Konstas, Hugh Weibgen (captain), Harjas Singh, Ryan Hicks (wicketkeeper), Tom Campbell, Oliver Peake, Raf MacMilllan, Tom Straker, Mahli Beardman, Callum Vidler
IND vs AUS U19 WC Final: Australia are Under 19 World Champions!
Australia win by 79 runs as Saumy Pandey is out caught to the keeper. They are the under 19 World champions. Another heartbreak for India against Australia in an ICC final.
IND vs AUS U19 WC Final LIVE: India 9 Down
India 9 Down with Murugan Abhishek falling to Vidler. Only a matter of time before Australia celebrate yet another ICC trophy win after beating India in the final. INDU19: 168/9 after 40.3 Overs. Surely a disappointing result for Indian fans.
IND vs AUS U19 WC Final LIVE: Adarsh, Limbani Depart
India 8 Down. Surely, another heartbreak loading for India in another 50 overs final against Australia after playing so well throughout the course of the tournament. Last recognised batter Adarsh fell to Beardman before Limbani succumbed to MacMillan's yorker. INDU19s staring at a defeat. They are 122/8 after 31.5 Overs.
IND vs AUS U19 WC Final LIVE: Australia's Game To Lose
Surely Australia's game to lose from here on as they have picked 2 more wickets in a span of 5 deliveries. First Priyanshu Moliya who fails to connect a pull neatly and is out caught off Anderson before wicketkeeper Aravelly Avanish who goes for 0 off 2 caught and bowled MacMillan. INDU19- 91/6 after 25.3 Overs.
IND vs AUS U19 WC Final LIVE: Priyanshu Moliya Joins Adarsh Singh
Priyanshu Moliya joins Adarsh Singh in the middle. Australia all over India as of now. Is this yet another ICC trophy slipping away from India?
