Goodbye for now - What a sensational turnaround by Sri Lanka U19 to chase a modest total and snatch victory against all the odds! The ICC Under-19 World Cup Super Six drama is just heating up, and we have a massive double-header coming your way on Tuesday, 27th of January, as Pakistan U19 lock horns with New Zealand U19, while India U19 take on Zimbabwe U19. Do join us earlier for the pre-match buildup before the first ball is bowled at 7.30 am GMT. Until then, it's goodbye from this thriller!
Afghanistan Under-19 skipper - Mahboob Khan says they planned to score 250 but failed with the bat. Shares that there were three run outs, which was a turning point. Tells that they have been fielding well so far in the tournament but today they lacked some fight on the field. Mentions that they will try to beat Ireland in the last match
The skipper of Sri Lanka Under-19 - Vimath Dinsara says his players fielded well. Mentions that the wicket was good to bat on. They managed to keep Afghanistan Under-19 under 200 and were confident while chasing it. Shares that it's good to bounce back after the last match against Australia.
...Time for the Presentation...
Chamika Heentigala wins the Player of the Match award - Heentigala says he enjoys his bowling every time and tries to support the team. Shares that Afghanistan Under-19 scored a good total but acknowledges how they batted overall. Reckons that Dulnith Sigera played a supporting role, and he just tried to anchor the innings.
Afghanistan failed to score big - Earlier in the game, Sri Lanka restricted Afghanistan to a modest total of 193 on a seaming wicket, capitalizing on disciplined spells from Kugathas Mathulan and Viran Chamuditha, who took two wickets each. After slipping to 64/4, Afghanistan recovered slightly through a 76-run partnership between Osman Sadat and Aziz Mia Khil, while Rohullah Arab added a quick unbeaten 22 at the end to give the bowlers something to defend.
A well-calculated chase by Lanka - However, Dimantha Mahavithana and Senuja Wekunagoda showcased remarkable temperament, anchoring the innings with a steady partnership that neutralized the early Afghan pressure. This foundation allowed Kavija Gamage and Dulnith Sigera to play sensible, calculated cameos later in the innings. By finding the boundary at crucial intervals, they successfully broke through sequences of dot balls, ensuring the required run rate never became a source of panic.
A clinical and composed display from Sri Lanka - Sri Lanka successfully redeemed themselves following a heavy defeat to Australia, securing a vital victory over Afghanistan. By winning the toss and electing to bowl, the Sri Lankans seized control of the narrative early. The run chase began with a moment of tension as Sri Lanka lost Viran Chamuditha in the very first over, threatening a potential collapse.
