Live, ICC Under-19 quarter finals, India v Bangladesh, latest update: India win by a 131 runs. Another thumping performance to stamp their authority. They march into the semi-finals and set up a tie against Pakistan. Nagarkoti hits the base of the off stump to clean up the innings. Perfect yorker sends Nayeem’s stump for a walk. Preview: An unbeaten India will start overwhelming favourites but will have to guard against complacency against a tricky Bangladesh in the quarter-finals of the ICC U-19 World Cup in Queenstown on Friday. Three-time champions India were hardly tested in the league stage where they thumped Australia, Papua New Guinea and Zimbabwe to top Group B. They meet Bangladesh who finished second in Group C after the loss against England in their previous game. [caption id=“attachment_4320343” align=“alignleft” width=“380”]  Prithvi Shaw and Saif Hassan, captain of the Indian and Bangladeshi U-19 teams respectively. Image credit: Twitter/@cricketworldcup[/caption] Both teams would be fresh going into the knockout fixture. Bangladesh faced England last Thursday while India completed a 10-wicket rout of Zimbabwe on Friday. When they take the field, India would also have in mind the loss they endured against Bangladesh that knocked them out of the Asia Cup in Kuala Lumpur last November. However, key players like captain Prithvi Shaw did not take part in that tournament. While Bangladesh played against England at the Queenstown Events Centre, India were based in Mount Maunganui through the league stage. It is worth mentioning that the last match here, the quarterfinal between England and Australia, was a low-scoring affair with Australia able to defend a meagre 127. England were shot out for 96 with leg-spinner Lloyd Pope picking up eight wickets. Both India and Bangladesh boast of players with first- class experience. While six of India’s squad have played in Ranji Trophy, five Bangladesh players, who took the field against England, have featured in the National Cricket League back home. Left-arm spinner Anukul Roy has been the leading wicket- taker for India with 10 scalps while skipper Shaw and Shubman Gill have been among the runs. The batting, however, has not been tested fully so far as India’s two wins in the league stage came with a 10-wicket margin. Injured pacer Ishan Porel might be able to return for the key game though India have enough fast-bowling firepower courtesy Shivam Mavi and Kamlesh Nagarkoti. The highly-rated Indian batsmen will need to be wary of Bangladesh medium pacer Hasan Mahud and off-spinner Afif Hossain, who both have five wickets to their name in three appearances. All-rounder Hossain has also made a significant contribution with the bat, scoring 124 runs at 41.33. Their leading run-getter has been number four Towhid Hridoy (134 runs), who smashed a match-winning 122 against Canada. Squads: India: Prithvi Shaw (captain), Shubman Gill, Aryan Juyal, Abhishek Sharma, Arshdeep Singh, Harvik Desai, Manjot Kalra, Kamlesh Nagarkoti, Pankaj Yadav, Riyan Parag, Ishan Porel, Himanshu Rana, Anukul Roy, Shivam Mavi, Shiva Singh. Bangladesh: Saif Hassan (captain), Afif Hossain, Aminul Islam, Hasan Mahmud, Mahidul Islam Ankon, Mohammad Naim, Mohammad Rakib, Nayeem Hasan, Pinak Ghosh, Qazi Onik, Robiul Hoque, Roni Hossen , Shakil Hossain, Tipu Sultan, Towhid Hridoy. Match starts: 3 am IST. With inputs from PTI

This Indian team has looked way superior to their opponents so far. Bangladesh pulled things back with the ball to bowl India out, but 265 was a good total in itself. Bangladesh did stitch couple of good partnerships at the top, but they lost wickets at regular intervals with spinners tightening the noose. Required rate kept climbing and the young boys wilted under pressure, leading to rather reckless run outs. Credit must be given to agile Indian fielders for that too. After the middle-order collapse, the game was heading only India’s way.
India is the only team to remain unbeaten in the tournament. With four massive victories under their belt, Prithvi Shaw’s side looks set for the challenge Pakistan will present, as the two teams will collide on 30 January, Tuesday. The match will begin at 3 am IST and we will be here, do give us company. Until then, its goodbye from us.

ALL OUT! India win by a 131 runs. Another thumping performance to stamp their authority. They march into the semi-finals and set up a tie against Pakistan. Nagarkoti hits the base of the off stump to clean up the innings. Perfect yorker sends Nayeem’s stump for a walk. Too hot for him to handle, the bat misses the line of the ball completely and that completes the formalities that were remaining.
Nayeem b K Nagarkoti 11(29)
After 42 overs,Bangladesh Under-19 134/9 ( Nayeem Hasan 11 , Robiul Hoque 14)
Couple of big hits for the number 11. He must have enjoyed getting stuck into it and getting two connections from the middle. Two sixes off the over.
After 41 overs,Bangladesh Under-19 122/9 ( Nayeem Hasan 11 , Robiul Hoque 2)
Hoque does well to get to the other end after tapping it past point. Nagarkoti is simply enjoying bowling quick. Bowling 140 for fun! Nayeem calls for a change in bat.Two runs off the over.
After 40 overs,Bangladesh Under-19 121/9 ( Nayeem Hasan 11 , Robiul Hoque 1)
Abhishek goes through his over quickly, with Hoque getting a single to long on. How long can Bangladesh make India wait?
After 39 overs,Bangladesh Under-19 119/9 ( Nayeem Hasan 10 , )
India looking to wrap things pretty soon here. Bangladesh is receiving a hammering at the hands of overhemling favourites.
OUT! Edged and gone! Mahmud becomes the latest batsman to be dismissed for a duck. Playing away from the body the edge flew to first slip.
Hasan Mahmud c Abhishek Sharma b K Nagarkoti 0(7)
After 38 overs,Bangladesh Under-19 119/8 ( Nayeem Hasan 9 , Hasan Mahmud 0)
Abhishek Sharma has been mighty impressive first with bat then with the ball. Already has couple of wickets off his four overs.Matter of time for Bangladesh.
After 37 overs,Bangladesh Under-19 118/7 ( Afif Hossain 17 , Nayeem Hasan 9)
Hossain pulls it across to mid wicket for a single off the second ball. Nayeem leaves one and then tries to go after the other but misses to get bat on ball. Mavi keeps it rather wide of off stump with Nayeem unable to rotate strike.
After 36 overs,Bangladesh Under-19 117/7 ( Afif Hossain 16 , Nayeem Hasan 9)
Clearly there is so much for the spinners on this pitch. No doubt Poep enjoyed bowling here during his eight-wicket spell. Abhishek bowling at right speeds, providing loop and flight, giving away only one run off the over.
After 35 overs,Bangladesh Under-19 116/7 ( Afif Hossain 15 , Nayeem Hasan 9)
Nayeem edges but it doesn’t carry to the slip fielder, falls short and the awkward bounce doesn’t allow the fielder to gather it cleanly. Nayeem gets a couple with a boundary coming early in the over. Eight runs off the voer.
After 34 overs,Bangladesh Under-19 108/7 ( Afif Hossain 15 , Nayeem Hasan 1)
Abhishek picks up the wicket off his second over. Nayeem comes out to the middle with Bangladesh in dire states. 156 needed off 96 balls with 3 wickets in hand.
OUT! Falling apart rather quickly for Bangladesh. Qazi Onik is out for a golden duck. Plays inside the line with the ball going past the outside edge and into the off stump.
Qazi Onik b Abhishek Sharma 0(1)
After 33 overs,Bangladesh Under-19 106/6 ( Afif Hossain 15 , )
Mahidul Islam plays out Mavi’s over. With the fast bowler getting it to move around. With no run coming off the first five balls Mahidul Islam decided to go after him but ended up playing it on to his stumps.
After 32 overs,Bangladesh Under-19 106/5 ( Afif Hossain 15 , Mahidul Islam Ankon (W) 10)
Hossain is getting into the groove with some attacking strokeplay, trying to transfer the pressure back on to the Indians. They need to keep at it as India are just a wicket away from penetrating into the tail
After 31 overs,Bangladesh Under-19 100/5 ( Afif Hossain 10 , Mahidul Islam Ankon (W) 9)
Eight runs come off the over. Bangladesh getting the much needed boundary in a bid to catch up with the required rate. Brings up the 100 runs also.
After 30 overs,Bangladesh Under-19 92/5 ( Afif Hossain 4 , Mahidul Islam Ankon (W) 7)
Back-to-back good overs for India. Only one single off the six balls by Shiva Singh. Require 174 runs off the last 20 with five wickets in hand. Shaw looks happy at the moment.
After 29 overs,Bangladesh Under-19 91/5 ( Afif Hossain 4 , Mahidul Islam Ankon (W) 6)
Roy has been absolutely superb. He is barely giving anything to the batsman. Mixing his pace but sticking to the lines. Batsmen will have to chance their arm by playing a risky shot if they have to earn runs off his over. Only one run from the 29th over.
After 28 overs,Bangladesh Under-19 90/5 ( Afif Hossain 4 , Mahidul Islam Ankon (W) 5)
Shiva Singh’s over goes for five runs with the help of that boundary. Bangladesh need more of such hits.
After 27 overs,Bangladesh Under-19 85/5 ( Afif Hossain 4 , Mahidul Islam Ankon (W) 0)
Roy continues to pile on the pressure by stringing dots together. Maiden over by the spinner.
After 26 overs,Bangladesh Under-19 85/5 ( Afif Hossain 4 , Mahidul Islam Ankon (W) 0)
Bangladesh have lost the plot committing unforgivable errors that have cost them dearly. The dot balls by the spinners has induced the mistakes in my opinion. Credit to some terrific fielding as well. India right on top.
OUT! Another bit of confusion. Another brilliant piece of fielding. Another run out! Hossain nudges it to square leg and isn’t keen on a single. Aminul Islam think he can make it and runs towards the danger end. Nagarkoti displays another outstanding piece of fielding pouncing on the little opportunity. Runs, jumps and dives to his right and throws it at a comfortable height for keeper Desai to effect the run out.
Aminul Islam run out (K Nagarkoti/Harvik Desai) 3(3)
