India continued their dominant run in the ICC Under-19 World Cup by securing a place in the semi-finals with a commanding performance in the knockout stage. Displaying maturity beyond their years, the young Indian side excelled in all departments, with disciplined bowling setting the tone and the batting unit calmly chasing the target under pressure.
The bowlers struck early to restrict the opposition, maintaining tight lines and building pressure throughout the innings. In response, India’s batters showed composure and intent, stitching together crucial partnerships to seal the win comfortably. The victory not only underlined India’s strength at the junior level but also highlighted the depth of talent coming through the ranks.
In contrast, Pakistan’s campaign came to an end after failing to cross the knockout hurdle. Despite moments of promise during the tournament, inconsistency proved costly as they were unable to deliver when it mattered most. The exit marks a disappointing finish for a side that had entered the competition with high expectations.
With this win, India march into the semi-finals as strong contenders for the title, keeping their hopes of lifting another Under-19 World Cup firmly alive.
