Delving into the details of the final, India U19 batted first and posted a daunting total of 411/9 in 50 overs. Vaibhav Suryavanshi was the wrecker-in-chief with a 175-run knock off 80 balls with 15 fours and as many sixes.
In the chase, England U19 could score 311 runs in 40.2 overs, losing the game by 100 runs. Caleb Falconer's 115-run knock went in vain. RS Ambrish scalped a three-wicket haul in his nine-over spell.
