Curtains to the first Semi-Final - Australia Under-19 deserve to win solely for the skipper's knock, but that's what pressure does. England Under-19 last won the trophy in 1998, and that's a long time ago. This group dares to rewrite history. However, they have to wait a bit more to find out their opponents as India will take on Afghanistan in the second Semi-Final. Join us tomorrow on the 4th of January at 7.30 am GMT. Do join us earlier for the build-up. Till then, cheers!
Australia Under-19 skipper - Oliver Peake acknowledges that England ultimately outplayed them by providing a blueprint for managing the conditions. Peake notes that England’s bowlers exploited the surface more effectively with their lengths and that his own side was slightly slow to adapt tactically to the game’s shifting angles. Praises his team’s resilience, noting that their belief remained steadfast as long as a recognized batter was at the crease. Peake expresses immense pride in the squad's growth throughout the tournament, concluding that if they had to go out, doing so after a hard-fought battle was the most honorable way.
Player of the Match - Thomas Rew (110) gets the award for his fantastic knock. The England Under-19 skipper expresses immense pride in his team’s performance, highlighting the crucial 135-run partnership with Caleb Falconer as a turning point on a surface that offered more for the batters than in previous weeks. Rew emphasized the importance of their smart batting approach, which ensured they had wickets in hand to set a competitive total. Credits his bowlers for their tactical execution under pressure, particularly noting their ability to nail yorkers and the strategic use of spin in the death overs to stifle Australia's chase. Rew admits that the team is ready to carry this momentum into the final, regardless of their opponent.
...Presentation...
England's masterclass with the bat - In a shifting World Cup Semi-Final battle, England posted a competitive 277/7 after a rollercoaster first innings. Despite losing Ben Dawkins early, Joseph Moores and Ben Mayes stabilized the innings before a sudden collapse saw England slip from 57/1 to 60/3. The momentum swung back decisively via a massive 135-run partnership between Caleb Falconer and Captain Thomas Rew, whose masterful 110 appeared to set England on a path toward a 300-plus total. However, Australia’s disciplined death bowling, led by Hayden Schiller and a crucial direct-hit run-out triggered another collapse, stifling the scoring until a late cameo from Farhan Ahmed and Sebastian Morgan pushed the total past 270. However, on a pitch which and uneven bounce, Australia Under-19 leaked 10-15 runs extra.
It was about two captains - In a Semi-Final defined by captain’s knocks, the duel between Thomas Rew and Oliver Peake provided a masterclass in leading from the front under duress. While Rew’s century anchored England’s total despite middle-order stutters, Peake’s response was a portrait of pure grit, as he fought a lonely battle while Australia’s chase repeatedly faltered around him. The momentum briefly stabilized during a vital 46-run stand with Aryan Sharma, but England’s ability to strike at regular intervals kept them marginally ahead. In a desperate surge, Peake ignited the contest by taking 22 runs off a single Manny Lumsden's over, a feat of ball-striking that momentarily silenced the English supporters and shifted the pressure. Ultimately, England’s tactical discipline proved decisive, as they bowled smartly to leave Australia just short, ensuring Peake’s heroic defiance ended in a heartbreakingly narrow defeat.
Stand up and applaud - England Under-19 cruise into the finals but take a moment to appreciate that knock from Oliver Peake. They say cricket is a team sport, but today, Oliver Peake turned the Semi-Final into a one-man mission. While wickets tumbled at the other end and the English celebrations grew louder, Peake stood like a wall. Battling through visible physical niggles and the immense pressure of a collapsing chase, he kept the nation's hopes alive until the very last breath.

OUT! TAKEN! ENGLAND ARE IN THE FINAL! A wide yorker, outside off, Oliver Peake struggles to use his feet and stands to carve it away with an open face of the bat but hits it straight in the hands of Ben Mayes at point. A quick check of front foot, bump ball and a clean catch, but all ticks the mark for England. England Under-19 win by 27 runs.

Bowls it very full and on middle, flicked to deep mid-wicket for a single. Century for Oliver Peake. A wonderful innings from a wonderful young cricketer. Not a big celebration as he has a big reward waiting on the horizon. Can he take his team over the line?

What a game we have on our hands. Oliver Peake on 99, trying his best with the niggle he is having to take his team over the line. However, have only one partner left to play with. William Byrom is the last man in.

OUT! BOWLED 'EM! Lachmund goes! A skiddy fuller length delivery on middle, Lachmund tries to defend it straight but the ball nips in and goes through the slight gap, between the bat and pad to rattle the middle pole.
Oliver Peake hits 22 runs to the leading wicket-taker of the tournament. This is incredible stuff at this young age.
