The defending champions, India U-19, showcased their supremacy in the ICC U-19 World Cup, securing a convincing 201-run victory against the USA. Arshin Kulkarni’s stellar century (108) and Musheer Khan’s impactful 73 laid the foundation for India’s formidable total of 326/5. The US struggled in the chase, with Utkarsh Srivastava’s 40 being a lone resistance. Naman Tiwari’s outstanding four-wicket haul in nine overs ensured India’s unbeaten streak in the group stage, displaying a clinical all-round performance.

Arshin Kulkarni’s explosive innings of 108 off 118 deliveries, featuring eight boundaries and three sixes, set the tone for India’s dominant display. Musheer Khan’s crucial 73 contributed significantly to India’s commanding total, showcasing the team’s depth in batting. Priyanshu Moliya and Aravelly Avanish played impactful cameos towards the end, propelling India to a challenging score.

Naman Tiwari’s Bowling Brilliance

In the second innings, Naman Tiwari demonstrated his bowling prowess, claiming a remarkable four-wicket haul for just 20 runs. His early breakthrough, dismissing Bhavya Mehta for a two-ball duck, set the tone for India’s bowling dominance. The US batters struggled to cope with India’s bowling attack, falling short in the challenging 327-run chase.
