The presentation ceremony...

For Pakistan Under-19, Ali Raza was the pick of the bowlers with 3/36 in his spell while Abdul Subhan and Faham-ul-Haq chipped in with a couple. Earlier today, Pakistan Under-19 batted first and posted a solid 281 on the back of an excellent 159 from Shahzaib Khan while Usman Khan with 60 played his part nicely at the top. Samarth Nagaraj, Yudhajit Guha, and Ayush Mhatre were the pick of India Under-19 bowlers. The boys in blue will look to get over this game and start afresh going forward while Pakistan Under-19 will take a lot of confidence with this huge win.

A clinical all-around effort from Pakistan Under-19 helps them defeat India Uner-19 by 43 runs to start their competition on a high. Chasing 282 for the win, India Under-19 did not have the best of starts as both openers were dismissed in the first five overs.
