40.2 – OUT! CAUGHT! The Boys in Blue have done it. Chouhan fires it full around off, Falconer shuffles back to manufacture room and steer it into the off side, but the ball only finds the edge. It flies towards backward point, dips teasingly in front of the fielder. Khilan A. Patel throws himself forward to pluck it just inches above the turf. India erupt in celebration, but the third umpire steps in to check whether the catch was taken cleanly or if it’s a bump ball. The replays confirm it travelled straight to the fielder, and Khilan ensured his fingers were safely underneath the ball as he completed a clean catch. So, the verdict goes in favour of India as OUT loads on the giant screen. Falconer is on his haunches in absolute dismay. The celebrations start in the Indian dressing room and the joy knows no bounds in the blue camp. A couple of Indian players uproot the stumps and pick them up as keepsakes. INDIA WIN BY 100 RUNS!

India’s batting effort – After opting to bat first, it was the Vaibhav Sooryavanshi show that powered India’s batting charge. For England, the dismissal of Aaron George was their only moment of joy in the opening exchanges, before Sooryavanshi unleashed a full-blown onslaught. Pace or spin, it made little difference as the bowlers were treated alike. Sooryavanshi brought up a breathtaking 55-ball hundred and carried on to score a stunning 175, the highest individual score by an Indian in Under-19 World Cup history. After removing Sooryavanshi, England were able to find a bit of footing in the game, but India still finished with 411.

Time for the runners-up to receive their medals – Thomas Rew, after collecting his medal, walks over for a chat. The English skipper begins by admitting that it was always going to be a tough challenge once a player like Vaibhav found his rhythm, saying the team was left scratching their heads at times. He notes that England had done their homework and planned to rely on their change-ups, an approach that had worked for them against India in the past, but praises Vaibhav, who batted brilliantly.  Reflecting on the conditions, Rew says they had expected a bit more assistance after opting to bowl, but felt that knowing the target would help them manage their tempo during the chase. Rew also praises the effort from his batters, singling out Caleb Falconer for an unbelievable innings and Dawkins for contributing valuable runs in the beginning.  Reflecting on the chase, he says the side was excited to go out and express themselves, enjoy the contest, and while they fell short of the target, they still had a good time out in the middle. He concludes by saying the occasion meant a great deal to him, and expresses gratitude to his parents and supporters both at the venue and back home, describing that as very special.

Chase recap – With a mountain to climb, England had nothing to lose and had to keep going. India’s new-ball attack hit hard lengths consistently up front, testing the English openers early on before Ben Dawkins broke free. Ben Mayes and Thomas Rew also took the attack to the Indian bowlers, but not for long enough. Once Dawkins was removed, India seized the momentum and went on a roll. Dawkins’ departure triggered a slide as England slipped from 174/3 to 177/7.
