100-run victory against Australia & 10-wicket win over PNG.

Two big wins to start the tournament. It has been a real Shaw of strength by India so far #U19CWC

Prithvi Shaw, IND captain: I don’t think our guys were relaxed. They gave it their best. We are always talking about process and not the result. All the coaches and support staff are very experienced and they keep us fit. Honoured to play with such a support staff. Really not thinking about that (being qualified).

Vagi Karaho, PNG captain: Good experience for us. First time so tough for us, hopefully we take a lot from this. The coaching staff helps us a lot to take us this far. We went to Brisbane for a camp. Quiet challenging for us.

Anukul Roy is named the Man of the Match for his career-best figures**:** Was feeling good. Kept my body warm and was well prepared.Feeling good, feeling very confident.

So Prithvi Shaw’s evisceration of the PNG bowlers has capped a perfect day for India,  the only blemish lying in the fact that his innings was not chanceless. Anukul Roy’s maiden five-for had set it up, but then Shaw played like India had a flight to catch. It’s PNG who will be flying out though. India now looking ahead to playing Zimbabwe on Friday.

India win by 10 wickets!

11 from this Tau over means India have eased to a clinical ten-wicket win. They also top the group. Anukul Roy starred with a five-wicket haul and it was all Shaw show thereafter.He hit two fours this over, the last of which – a slap over covers – brought up India’s win.

FOUR! Back-to-back boundaries and it means India have cantered to an easy 10-wicket win. Shaw scores 57 of the 67 runs that India made. Superb win!

FIFTY! That boundary brings up Shaw’s fifty. That’s a half-volley on legs from Tau and Shaw flicks this. India almost home.

After 7 overs, IND 56/0 (Prithvi Shaw 48, Manjot Kalra 7)

Morea into the attack, and he is taken for 11 runs, including a brace of fours from Shaw.

Almost a run a ball 50 partnership for India, and the Indian skipper is channelling his inner Sehwag. This is a typical Prithvi Shaw innings, this is how he likes to play, before first class cricket mellowed him down.

FOUR! Full, on off-stump which means enough room for Shaw to free his arms. He does just that. Hits this over bowler’s head.

FOUR! Leke Morea lets go a full toss and Shaw miscues over mid-wicket. A boundary nevertheless.

After 6 overs, IND 45/0 (Prithvi Shaw 38, Manjot Kalra 6)

Tau continues. Pitches first two full on middle and leg. Shaw flicks for no result. He does better on the third and punishes the full ball for four. He is dropped the next ball and takes advantage on the last ball with another four. 10 from the over.

FOUR! Down the track and a bit inside-out from Shaw. Lots of class. India 20 away.

FOUR! Shaw brings out the flick again. Left-armer Tau pitches this full on middle, and Shaw does the rest.

After 5 overs, IND 35/0 (Prithvi Shaw 29, Manjot Kalra 5)

Well, the over started with a bouncer and a stare from Kamea, but all he has to show for are 9 runs from the over, including two lovely hits to the fence. Brilliant start from India.

FOUR! Third man was brought in and Shaw hits uppishly over the infield for another four. India are halfway already.

FOUR! Attempted yorker from Kamea becomes a full toss and Shaw almost spoons a catch to mid-wicket. All’s well in the end and he collects another four.

After 4 overs, IND 26/0 (Prithvi Shaw 20, Manjot Kalra 5)

Tau continues. Dot on the first ball to Kalra is followed by a single. Shaw plays out two more dots and collects a single on the fifth. Kalra defends the last ball. Good over.

After 3 overs, IND 24/0 (Prithvi Shaw 19, Manjot Kalra 4)

Tweleve from that over with three lovely fours from Shaw. India look in hurry.

FOUR! And again. Same length, same spot, but an even better flick. India racing away.

FOUR! Full on middle and leg and Shaw flicks this stylishly past mid-wicket.

FOUR! Shaw joins the act. Not too full, not exactly a half-volley but Shaw drives it past square. Semo Kamea concedes his first four.

After 2 overs, IND 12/0 (Prithvi Shaw 7, Manjot Kalra 4)

James Tau from the other end. He bowls left-arm medium fast. Good lengths to start. He is bowling full, which is what you need on this pitch. Shaw finding it difficult to time the ball, could be due to the lack of pace. Couple of inside edges on attempted cover drives. He jams his bat down on the fifth ball, which is again full. Kalra opens his account with a beautiful cover drive for four on the last ball.

FOUR! What a shot from Manjot Kalra. Full and outside off from Tau and he hits it through covers.

After 1 over, IND 7/0 (Prithvi Shaw 6, Manjot Kalra 0)

Shaw takes first strike. Semo Kamea to start the proceedings. Shaw opens India’s account with a couple on the second ball, and crunches the fourth for a boundary. Plays out the next and collects a bye on the last ball. Seven from the over.

FOUR! A bit back of the length and that’s all Shaw needs. Brings out his backfoot punch to collect his first four.

Short and sweet bowling innings from India, probably exactly what they planned, playing their second game in three days. I’m surprised that Arshdeep Singh didn’t get a longer spell, would have been perfect for him to get some exposure.

PNG are bowled out for a paltry 64. 21 runs less than their score in the previous match. Indian bowlers ran all over the helpless PNG batsmen. Failed to last even half the innings being bowled out in the 22nd over.

India need 65 to register their second win. It won’t be a long break as Prithvi Shaw and Manjot Kalra will walk out soon and probably get to their target sooner.

ALL OUT! Five-for Anukul Roy! The left-arm spinner gets the final wicket after going over the wicket to the left-handed batsmen bowls it slower through the air and beats his outside edge as the ball knocks on the off-stump. Semo Kamea b Anukul Roy 0(3)

OUT! Kevau is drawn into the drive as he checks his shot with the ball coming on slower than expected. Simple catch for Gill in the covers.

Kevau Tau c Shubman Gill b Anukul Roy 2(21)

After 21 overs, PNG 64/8 (Kevau Tau 2, Boge Arua 0)

Shiva Singh being introduced. He finds his length straightaway. Bowls loopy, full-length delveries to Tau who resists for four balls. Good bounce on the fifth ball, but a single nevertheless. Arua plays out the last ball. Good, neat start this.

After 20 overs, PNG 63/8 (Kevau Tau 1, Boge Arua 0)

Maiden wicket for Anukul Roy who has picked his third wicket. Two wickets remaining for PNG.

OUT! That’s gone through the gate! James Tau played for the spin while the ball sneaked through the gap between bat and pad. Falling apart here. 

James Tau b Anukul Roy 0(6)

After 19 overs, PNG 63/7 (Kevau Tau 1, James Tau 0)

Only a single leg-bye in the over with a wicket for Nagarkoti. This is heading towards an early finish. Can they go past their previous score of 95?

OUT! Bowled! Straight and simple. Morea was never going to dig that out. Bowled the yorker over 140ks as his innings comes to an end.

After 18 overs, PNG 62/6 (Kevau Tau 1, Leke Morea 0)

Looking extremely grim for PNG. Not that there were expectations of scoring at a quick rate or coming on top of this Indian bowling attack, but what they can do is curb unnecessary shots and simply throw their wickets away.

OUT! Easy-peasy. Sam seemed to be giving some catching practice. Finds Mavi who is positioned at mid on, slightly deep mid on. Gifted his wicket away in a temptation to loft the ball in the air.

Ovia Sam c Shivam Mavi b Anukul Roy 15(25)

After 17 overs, PNG 61/5 (Ovia Sam 15, Kevau Tau 1)

Nagarkoti is back into the attack. He got the batsman to nick it to the keeper, but nobody seems to have heard. There was no appeal from the fielding side. Very strange. He is clocking it in mid 140s now.  Maiden over.

After 16 overs, PNG 61/5 (Ovia Sam 15, Kevau Tau 1)

Tau gets off the mark off with a single to backward point. Roy flighting the ball after getting the wicket with a flatter delivery, perhaps setting up another wicket. PNG batsman reluctant to come down and playing him off the backfoot.

OUT! And just as when the duo were getting some time in the middle.. they lose another wicket. Half-their side back in the hut with just over 15 overs. Roy hits the off-stump. 

Sinaka Arua b Anukul Roy 12(19)

After 15 overs, PNG 61/4 (Ovia Sam 15, Sinaka Arua 12)

Five runs come of the over. Partnership building gradually for PNG.

DROPPED! Mavi the fielder at fine leg has plenty of time to get under the ball but never looked confident of taking it. Sure, the strong wind must have played its part in the indecision. Arua came out of his crease and looked to hit towards midwicket but instead got a top edge.

After 14 overs, PNG 56/4 (Ovia Sam 13, Sinaka Arua 9)

Roy foxes Sinaka off the first ball with a flighted delivery. Wicket-keeper whipped the bails off but the batsman had made his ground after initially charging down the wicket. huge shout for leg before wicket, but Umpire thinks he had a thin inside edge that saved him. Drinks are called on the field.

After 13 overs, PNG 55/4 (Ovia Sam 13, Sinaka Arua 8)

Arshadeep changes his angle after couple of deliveries as he goes round the wicket. Arua drives and finds the gap through extra cover. They run three. Singh goes back to over the wicket for the final ball.

After 12 overs, PNG 52/4 (Ovia Sam 13, Sinaka Arua 5)

Ten runs come off Roy’s over with some positive intent shown by Arua, skipping down the track and playing a brave stroke.

FOUR! Sinaka jumps out of his crease and strikes it in the gap over mid-wicket and gets four.

FOUR! Thick edge! Runs down to the third man fence.

After 11 overs, PNG 42/4 (Ovia Sam 7, Sinaka Arua 0)

Arshadeep begins successfully. Getting some in swing into the right-hander going for him. Credited with the wicket of the skipper in the first over. Arua walks in at number six.

OUT! Edged and gone, Arshdeep Singh has his first wicket of the tournament and he gets it in his first over. Good length delivery outside the off-stump, Karaho flirts with it and nicks it behind with Aryan Juyal diving sideways and pouching a good catch.

Karaho c Aryan Juyal b Arshdeep Singh 6(13)

Arshdeep Singh comes into the attack

After 10 overs, PNG 40/3 (Ovia Sam 7, Vagi Karaho 5)

Spin. Anukul Roy into action. Couple of comical forward defence for Sam, more importantly he has managed to block the ball from thudding into his pads. Gets a brace off the third ball working it away on the leg side.

After 9 overs, PNG 38/3 (Ovia Sam 7, Vagi Karaho 5)

Mavi continuing, starts off with a wide delivery. Chance of a run out only if the throw was little better and at the right end, there was huge-mix up in the middle for the second run off the last ball.

FOUR! Sam earns his first boundary. Glances away to fine leg where fielder misfields it, in fact it went through him into the boundary.

After 8 overs, PNG 30/3 (Ovia Sam 0, Vagi Karaho 4 )

Captain Karaho is in early and looks solid in defence, the boundary off the last ball will certainly help his confidence.

FOUR! Wow! That was sweetly timed! Opened the face of the bat a touch to run it past point and it had the legs to beat the third man fielder as well. Vagi gets off the mark with an amazing shot.

Vagi Karaho the captain is the new man in.

After 7 overs, PNG 26/3 (Ovia Sam 0, )

Indian boys are all over PNG. Two wickets off last two deliveries, courtesy some spectacular bowling and fielding. Atai was looking like he had just got his eye in but he is back in the hut after that stunning throw from Nagarkoti.

OUT!  Ovia Sam, the new batsman, tucked it on the leg side, non-striker, Atai took a couple of yards and started running only to be sent back, Nagarkoti picks up and throws! Direct-hit! End for Atai. My word, It was brilliant, absolutely brilliant, piece of fielding.

Simon Atai run out Nagarkoti 13(26)

OUT! Well, that was as good as a yorker you will see! Tailed back in slightly bowled at 140 clicks, Heagi Toua had absolutely no answer to that. Mavi gets his second wicket.

Heagi Toua b Shivam Mavi 0(8)

After 6 overs, PNG 25/1 (Simon Atai(w) 13, Heagi Toua 0**)**

PNG get a move on with couple of well-timed pull shots by Atai. Nagarkoti persisted with the shot ball and Atai was upto the task.

FOUR! Nagarkoti drops it back of the length again and Atai seemed ready for it. Similar shot in the similar area, it was played slightly aerially but well within control.

FOUR! Banged in short and Atai manages to rock back and pull it away to square leg boundary for the first four of the bat.

After 5 overs, PNG 15/1 (Simon Atai(w) 3, Heagi Toua 0**)**

Mavi tests Atai with a short ball and clearly he had no clue to how he managed to get some bat on it as he unconvincingly tried fending it away. The batsman was so confused that he set off for a run which was never there, but the fielder coming from point, missed the stumps.

After 4 overs, PNG 14/1 (Simon Atai(w) 2, Heagi Toua 0**)**

Nagarkoti finds his rhythm as he keeps it on and outside the off side with only a single coming off a bye – which really shouldn’t have – off the over.

After 3 overs, PNG 13/1 (Simon Atai(w) 2, Heagi Toua 0**)**

Edge…but safe! The ball comes off from the splice of the bat but no second slip in position means they can run a single to third man. Mavi gets one to come back into the left-hander that hits the pads and the ball rolls onto the leg side for a couple. Heagi Toua is in at number three after Mavi trapped Mahuru.

OUT! Shivam Mavi strikes! Mahuru was beaten neck and crop. Clearly beaten for pace there with the ball jagging back in. The bat came down late and he looked like a dead duck. 

Mahuru lbw b Shivam Mavi 4(7)

After 2 overs, PNG 9/0 (Simon Atai(w) 1, Igo Mahuru 1)

Nagarkoti spraying it down the leg side on more than couple of occasions to the left hander as he looks to get his lines right. Four leg-byes and a wide that wasn’t collected cleanly gave an extra run.

Kamlesh Nagarkoti will bowl the second over from the pavilion end

After 1 over, PNG 2/0 (Simon Atai(w) 1, Igo Mahuru 0)

All eyes on the speed gun as Mavi begins the first over, warms up with couple of deliveries in lower 130s making his way close to 140 by the end of it. We see some variable bounce on the wicket with the ball climbing over chest to the keeper and scurrying as low as the ankles of the batsmen in the first over straightaway. Suggesting the dampness in the pitch probably because of the rains early morning the pitch is still. A wide and a over throw from point gives them the couple of runs.

Shivam Mavi to start the proceedings for India from Mount end. Simon Atai will take strike. Igo Mahuru at the other end.

After having lost to Zimbabwe by 10 wickets in their opening game. They are up against a formidable Indian side, how fast can India bowl them out, going by their young bowlers pace, soon. Very soon.

How early will they be able to wrap it up or PNG show some fight.

day-night game, perhaps India fancy themselves to finish before sundown. #U19CWC #IndvPNG https://t.co/f8N1IPyEYY

Welcome to the live Blog here from Tauranga. The news from the middle, in Ravi Shastri’s words, is that India have won the toss and will field. Arshdeep Singh has come in for the injured Ishan Porel, that’s the only change for India. 

Overcast conditions, (there was a bit of rain this morning) is why India have chosen to field. Besides the fact that they would like to wrap up this match early, that is.

It is overcast condition in Bay Oval with strong winds blowing around the ground will assist the fast bowlers.

Toss update: Prthivi Shaw has won the toss and he asks PNG to bat first.

After not starting off as they would have liked against Afghanistan in their opening game Pakistan Under-19 have strearolled past Ireland Under-19 with a 9-wicket win. Shaheen Afridi has wrecked havoc in Ireland camp. Have a look in the link below

Hello and welcome to Firstpost’s live coverage of India’s second match of the ICC U-19 World Cup 2018, against Papua New Guinea. India won the first match convincingly and Prithvi Shaw’s boys would look to continue the momentum.
