That's it form this game where England clinch the Plate by defeating Sri Lanka. Now, on Tuesday, the arch-rivals collide as India Under 19 and Pakistan Under 19 battle out in the middle for a place in the finals. That promises to be one exciting game. It begins at 1000 local (0800 GMT). Do join us for that game. Till then, goodbye!
England U19 skipper, George Balderson says he is very proud of his team today but is disappointed at being knocked out in the first two games of the tournament. Says they talked about how the pitch was slow and taking the pace off was the key along with the spinners bowling well. Ends by saying that this has been a great experience for the team and this has given the whole team great exposure.
Sri Lanka U19 skipper, Nipun Dananjaya, says he does not regret choosing to bowl first and he is happy with the decision. Says the batting was poor and they needed to do more. Adds that the run outs hurt them a lot as well. Ends by saying that this was a wonderful experience but unfortunately they lost today.
Dan Mousley is the Man of the Match for his ton. Mousley says that he has enjoyed opening the innings and that is his favourite position. Says that it was their plan to start the innings slowly and then catch up. Adds that his and Jack Haynes' partnership was good and they have been playing together since they were around 13 years old. Also praises Evison for his knock at the death Goldsworthy for his fantastic bowling performance.
Earlier in the game, England after being put to bat, posted a very good total on this slow surface. Century from Mousley and half tons from Haynes and Evison took them to 279. The Lankans were just not good enough with the ball and they could not pick wickets at regular intervals. And during the run chase, they lost wickets in heaps and fell miserably short of the total. Please stay tuned for the presentation.
England were excellent with the ball. Skipper Balderson struck in the very first over. Rasantha and Mishara added 45 runs between them for the second wicket and that's when Goldsworthy arrived. He started troubling the Lankans and removed Mishara to break the stand. The England players were superb with their fielding as well and deserve a lot of credit for the run outs. Eventually, Goldsworthy returned and picked up 3 wickets quickly to roll over the Lankan batting line-up and the game with a 5-fer.
The Sri Lankans could never get going in the run chase as they lost Paranavithana in the very first over. Ravindu Rasantha was the only man who could battle it out in the middle with a few quality strokes but with partners running out at the other end, his valiant effort was always going to fall short. The communication between the batters was poor during the chase was and three wickets fell in the form of run outs. Apart from Rasantha, only two other batters could manage to get into double-digit scores and that sums up the entire run chase from the Sri Lankans.
Comprehensive victory in the end. This was always coming, wasn't it? England win by a massive margin of 152 runs. The Lankans fell apart like nine-pins and the man with a fifer, Lewis Goldsworthy is getting hugs from all his teammates here.

Lewis Goldsworthy To Dilshan Madushanka OUT!
OUT! Caught! Goldsworthy has bagged his 5-fer and he is absolutely delighted. What a brilliant performance from him! He bowls a loopy ball around off, Dilshan this time targets to go over the mid off region but ends up mistiming it. The ball goes straight to Aldridge at mid off. He pouches it comfortably and ENGLAND ARE THE 2020 UNDER-19 PLATE CHAMPIONS!

Lewis Goldsworthy To Kavindu Nadeeshan OUT!
OUT! LBW! There's number 4 for Goldsworthy and now he will surely be looking for his 5-fer. Nadeeshan is not happy but Goldsworthy won't care. A full ball on middle, Nadeeshan looks to reverse sweep but he cannot connect with it. He is hit flush on the pads. They appeal and the umpire agrees. The replays roll in and show Nadeeshan got a glove there during the reverse sweep. No wonder why Nadeeshan reacted in the way he did after the umpire raised his finger.

He shuffles across and looks to flick but misses to get hit on the pads. The England players appeal and up goes the finger after some thought. It looks like the ball would have gone on to hit the top of middle and leg pole. England just 3 wickets away from victory now.

Scott Currie To Chamindu Wijesinghe OUT!
OUT! RUN OUT! Fantastic work from Jordan Cox. Another wicket falls in the form of a run out. This is again an unfortunate way to get out. It is a length ball on middle, Wijesinghe flicks it towards deep mid-wicket and calls for a couple straightaway. They run the first one hard and as Wijesinghe returns for the second, he slips and loses his shoes too. The fielder from the deep throws the ball to the keeper. Cox collects the ball coming forward nicely and whips the bails off quickly. The square leg umpire refers it upstairs. The replays roll in and show that Wijesinghe is well short. The third run out of the innings and the Lankans are throwing this game away.
Is that another run out? Cox, the England keeper, is not too confident. Well, he can actually celebrate as he has done exceptional work to find Chamindu short.

Hamidullah Qadri To Ravindu Rasantha
NOT OUT! Aldridge had almost pulled off a stunner but Rasantha survives. Flatter delivery on middle and leg, Rasantha after facing 5 consecutive dot balls looks to force a single towards the leg side. However, he chips this one towards Aldridge at mid-wicket who dives forward. He gathers the ball and England start to celebrate. The umpires are not sure about it and Rasantha is also not going anywhere. The umpire refers it upstairs. Replays roll in and there is conclusive evidence that the ball bounced just before going into Aldridge's hands. England's celebrations shortened and Rasantha lives to die another day.
DRINKS BREAK! It has been all England in the first hour of this run chase. They have bowled well to get wickets and they have got assistance from the Lankan batters too. A couple of them have became victims of run outs and are in complete disarray. Ravindu Rasantha is the only man who is battling it out in the middle but has not got much support from the others. He needs one of the players to hang out in the middle and build a stand along with him. Will they be able to do so or will England keep chipping away with the wickets?

George Hill To Ravindu Rasantha OUT!
OUT! RUN OUT! Bull's eye from Haynes! Dinusha is sold a dummy down the river though. A length ball on middle, Rasantha works it towards mid-wicket and calls for the run. Sonal responds and takes off too but Rasantha sends him back. Dinusha backtracks and tries to get back in but Haynes from mid-wicket scores a direct hit. No need to go to the third umpire for this one as Sonal is not even in the frame. Tough luck for the non-striker. Half the side back in the hut for Sri Lanka.
Chamindu Wijesinghe is the new man in.

Lewis Goldsworthy To Nipun Dananjaya OUT!
OUT! RUN OUT! This is really unlucky for the Lankan skipper. He walks off with disbelief on his face. England would not care though. A full ball outside off, Nipul squeezes it towards point and takes off for a single. Mousley there gets to the ball, picks it up and fires the throw at the non-striker's end. He hits and the third umpire has been called for. Replays roll in and show that while completing the run, Dananjaya got into a tangle with the bowler, Goldsworthy. That stopped Dananjaya in his stride. Did Dananjaya drag his bat down in time? He did that while getting inside the crease but as the ball hit the stumps, the bat again went up in the air. The third umpire takes his time to check with a few angles and then in the end signals it out.
Who walks in now? Ahan Wickramasinghe has walked out to rescue Sri Lanka from a perilous situation. He had injured his left wrist while fielding in the first innings and it will be difficult for him to bat on a spinning track.
Run out appeal taken upstairs. Did he ground the bat there? Looks really close. He gets in a tangle with the bowler while trying to get to his crease. His bat is in the air when the ball hits the stumps but before that, he did drag his bat in and then it went over. Well, the umpire thinks this is out. Interesting call from the third umpire.
