England U19 vs India U19, Final, ICC Under 19 World Cup 2026 - Highlights

Sebastian Morgan to Henil Patel, out Henil Patel Run Out!! 1 run completed. A top-edge and the ball lands in front of the deep mid-wicket fielder - they come back for the second and Henil Patel could find himself in trouble - it's very close, margin of a frame, but Henil's definitely short and OUT is the call. Last ball of the over and Kanishk Chouhan wanted strike for the next over - banged in short and Henil top-edged the heave - the fielder ran in, collected the ball on the bounce and then the throw was accurate, right at the stumps and Thomas Rew does the rest.

Sebastian Morgan to Khilan Patel, out Caught by Joseph Moores!! An ugly slog, a massive top-edge and it's taken on second grab at deep mid-wicket - on a good length and angling into the left-hander, Khilan swung across the line, doesn't get anywhere near the middle of the bat - plenty of height and no real distance - Moores gets under it at deep mid-wicket, the ball did pop up, but he completes the catch on the second attempt. Khilan Patel c Joseph Moores b Sebastian Morgan 3(4)

James Minto to Ambrish, out Bowled!! Cleaned up! Ambrish attempts something very cheeky and loses his off-stump instead - on a length and in that channel around off, too close to cut and the length wasn't short either - Ambrish backs away slightly, looks to dab it fine and watches his stump cart-wheel.

A cheeky lap, but Kundu has mistimed it badly and it lands as a dolly in the hands of short fine - was a full-toss and the shot was on, but he can't quite get under it, scoops it in the air and offers a dolly to Albert - he calmly jogs back, settles under and completes the catch. Abhigyan Kundu falls after a breezy little cameo. Abhigyan Kundu c Ralphie Albert b Sebastian Morgan 40(31) [4s-6 6s-1]

Manny Lumsden to Abhigyan Kundu, FOUR, Kundu is toying with the field - fine leg is inside the ring and he just has to clear him - change of pace from Lumsden, was the slower short ball, but Kundu still shuffles across and laps it over the fielder in the ring, brings up India's 350

Manny Lumsden to Abhigyan Kundu, SIX, lovely, banged in short by Lumsden, but the angle takes it down leg - Kundu gets inside the line, uses Lumsden's pace and helps it over long leg with the pull

Ralphie Albert to Ambrish, FOUR, poor delivery - fired down leg, Ambrish uses the pace on the ball and glances it to fine leg

James Minto to Vedant Trivedi, out Caught by Ben Mayes!! Two wickets in two overs for Minto. This was not a wicket-taking ball. Full and down leg, would have been a wide had Trivedi let go, but instead he looks to flick and closes the bat face a bit early, the leading edge skies straight up and Mayes comes in from deep square leg, takes it safely with both hands. England fighting back and have reduced India to five downVedant Trivedi c Ben Mayes b James Minto 32(36) [4s-3]

James Minto to Vihaan Malhotra, out Caught by BJ Dawkins!! Tame dismissal! Minto comes back and breaks the partnership. Cross-seam back of a length delivery, hurries onto Malhotra who was camping back in the crease, tries to loft it down the ground and the ball hits the splice of the bat, lobs to mid-off and Dawkins takes a dolly.

Manny Lumsden to Vedant Trivedi, FOUR, shot! Not the first time he's played that shot. Short and outside off, Trivedi gets on top of the bounce and cracks the cut past a diving backward point. No need to run for that..

Manny Lumsden to Vaibhav Sooryavanshi, out Caught by Thomas Rew!! The most dominating knock in the history of U19 World Cup comes to an end. Most of the England players go across to shake hands as Sooryavanshi walks off. What a knock! He does not even look disappointed on missing out on a double century. He walks off to a standing ovation and acknowledges it with a bat raise. Lumsden goes round the wicket, angles it in and takes pace off, Sooryavanshi sits down to play the lap but the ball does not come on, hits his glove and lobs behind for Thomas Rew to take a dolly. England needed that because at the rate Sooryavanshi was going, even 500 seemed possible. This breakthrough will give them some time to breathe, regroup and pull things back. Vaibhav Sooryavanshi c Thomas Rew b Manny Lumsden 175(80) [4s-15 6s-15]

Ralphie Albert to Vaibhav Sooryavanshi, SIX, he's putting on a show here - Vaibhav Sooryavanshi - Albert goes wide off the crease and then looks to push it wider of off, but Vaibhav is in such mood that he leans across and smotes it back over the bowler's head, this one goes all the way for his 11th six

Ralphie Albert to Vaibhav Sooryavanshi, 1 run, a 55-ball hundred in a WC final - Vaibhav Sooryavanshi removes the helmet, closes his eyes in a prayer, removes the gloves and then offers a warm applause towards the dressing room. It's a room filled with beaming people - what an innings and what an innings to play on the big day - he's looked in total control and has left England searching for prayers at the moment - stabbed a wide ball to the left of cover-point and calls his partner across for a quick single

Alex Green to Ayush Mhatre, out Caught by Ben Mayes!! The adrenaline was flowing and Mhatre has holed out to long leg - banged in short by Green, was the heavy ball and the Indian captain was in no control over the pull, took his eyes off the ball at the last moment, goes through with the hook and holes out to Mayes in the deep - a simple catch and England can breathe a sigh of relief.

Farhan Ahmed to Vaibhav Sooryavanshi, SIX, just a couple of sighters and Sooryavanshi brings out the big shot. This is flighted around off, he clears his front leg and swings through the line, plenty of height and distance to clear long-on

Manny Lumsden to Ayush Mhatre, FOUR, wow! That's an oustanding shot. This is not full or good length - this is a back of a length delivery and Mhatre has lofted it straight back over the bowler. Once again he meets the ball on top of the bounce and uses a straight bat to get it down the ground, one bounce and over the ropes

Manny Lumsden to Ayush Mhatre, FOUR, that's sloppy from Moores. Short of length delivery, Mhatre takes it on and hits the pull flat to deep square leg, goes on the bounce to Moores and he makes a mess. Allows the ball to burst through his hands and roll into the rope

James Minto to Vaibhav Sooryavanshi, FOUR, shot! 18 from the over. 33 from the last two overs. India on the charge.

Manny Lumsden to Ayush Mhatre, SIX, Mhatre has broken the shackles. He took 8 balls to get off the mark in the semifinal, he did so by smashing a six, took him 11 balls today and now he's dealing in boundaries. 4, 4, 4, 6! This is a short of length delivery, Mhatre is waiting for that, quickly gets into position and nails the pull over deep mid-wicket

Sebastian Morgan to Ayush Mhatre, FOUR, he's off the mark. Mhatre was itching to get his first run and as soon as he saw this ball in his arc, he didn't hold back. Not quite off the middle but the lofted drive clears mid-on and races away

Alex Green to Vaibhav Sooryavanshi, SIX, ufff! That's an incredible shot. Yes, short of length delivery but not there for the upper cut, Sooryavanshi though uses his hands to get under the shot and intentionally lifts it over, he generates plenty of power and the ball sails over

Sebastian Morgan to Vaibhav Sooryavanshi, FOUR, that's bread and butter for Sooryavanshi. Morgan strays down leg and Sooryavanshi helps himself to a boundary, whips it towards fine leg and almost sends it all the way

Alex Green to Aaron George, out Caught by Ben Mayes!! There's the early wicket for England. George, the centurion from the semifinal, departs cheaply. He got away with a similar kind of drive in the first over but not this time. This is not full enough to play the drive, but George tries to play it on the up and does not keep it down, the bat face is open and the ball flies towards backward point, Mayes bends to his right and clasps it with both hands. That was a good, sharp catch from Mayes as the ball was travelling. Aaron George c Ben Mayes b Alex Green 9(11) [4s-2]

Sebastian Morgan to Aaron George, FOUR, George and India are away. Bit uppish but in the gap. Not quite full to play the drive, but that's how good the pitch is - George meets it on top of the bounce and creams it through extra cover
