<p><strong>India U19</strong>, under the captaincy of skipper Uday Saharan, has been on a winning streak since the commencement of their group stage games and have emerged victorious in all three games against Ireland, Bangladesh, and the USA, which allowed them to top their respective group stage groups. The Uday Saharan-led team easily defeated New Zealand and their Asian neighbors, Nepal, as they managed to top Group 1 of the Super Six with eight points. Against the Kiwi?s, the Indians were in outstanding form as they emerged victorious by a margin of 214 runs.</p>



<p>The Boys in Blue defeated Nepal by 132 runs in their final Super Six match, as they managed to successfully defend a target of 293 runs. Then the Indians squared off against the hosts of this year?s U19 World Cup, South Africa, and they successfully defeated the Junior Proteas, riding on the outstanding batting efforts of in-form player Sachin Dhas (96 runs in 95 balls) and Captain Uday Saharan (81 runs in 124 balls). India would be looking to defeat Australia in the final and win their sixth successful U19 World Cup title</p>

<p>Like India, <strong>Australia</strong> has been unbeaten in this edition of the Under-19 World Cup as well. The Kangaroos comfortably defeated Sri Lanka, Zimbabwe, and Namibia in the group stage matches. In the Super Six, captain Hugh Weibgen and his team beat rival England by a massive 110 runs. Their second Super Six match against the West Indies was abandoned due to rain. Had the Rain Gods not intervened, the Boys in Yellow likely would have defeated the West Indies, as they were in a strong position to win.?</p>



<p>Against Pakistan, Weibgen and his players secured a nail-biting one-wicket victory in the second semi-final. Tom Straker's bowling (6-24) wreaked havoc as Saad Baig's team was bowled out for 179 runs in 50 overs. Azan Awais (52 runs in 91 balls) and all-rounder Arafat Minhas (52 runs in 61 balls) were the top scorers for Pakistan. The target of 179 runs looked pretty easy for the Australian batters, but Pakistan's dangerous bowling attack troubled them greatly. Ali Raza, with his four-wicket haul, almost took Pakistan to the final against India, but Harry Dixon (50 runs in 75 balls), Ollie Peake (49 runs in 75 balls), and a rescuing cameo by Raf Macmillan (19 runs in 29 balls*) helped Australia qualify.?</p>



<p>The 2024 Under-19 World Cup Final between defending champions India and three-time winners Australia will be thrilling as the arch rivals battle for the Youth World Cup trophy. The seniors faced off in the 2023 ODI World Cup final, where Pat Cummins led Australia to a record sixth title. It remains to be seen whether Weibgen will follow in the seniors' footsteps or not.</p>



<p>Talking about the playing 11 of the Kangaroos, Harry Dixon, Sam Konstas, and Skipper Hugh Weibgen will form the top order of the Boys in Yellow. Dixon and Konstas will open the inning against India in the final. Harry Dixon (50 runs in 75 balls) scored a really good half century versus Pakistan in the second semi-final, and he would be looking to punish the Indian bowling unit with his good form. Sam Konstas, on the other hand, scored a brilliant century against the Windies, but he wasn?t able to do much with the bat against Pakistan in the semi-final, so he would be looking to contribute with the bat in fine fashion against India and help his team tackle the Indian bowlers.</p>



<p>Captain Hugh Weibgen will bat at number three in the final of the 2024 U19 World Cup. He scored a fine hundred against England, but he failed to contribute with the bat in the games against the West Indies and Pakistan. Hugh would like to score big runs against India in the final and lead his side to their fourth U19 World Cup title.</p>

<p>The middle order will consist of Harjas Singh, wicketkeeper Ryan Hicks, and Oliver Peake. Harjas and Ryan got dismissed early in the semi-final versus Pakistan, so they would be hoping to play important roles with the bat against the Boys in Blue. Oliver Peake played a brilliant knock of 49 runs against Pakistan, and he would like to continue with his good form against India in the final as well.</p>



<p>Raf Macmillan, Tom Campbell, Tom Straker, Mahli Beardman, and Callum Vidler will form the lower order of the Aussies. Straker (12 wickets) and Vidler (12 wickets) are the fifth and sixth highest wicket takers in the 2024 Under-19 World Cup, and they will be the main threat for the Indian U19 batters. Beardman will play the role of the third fast bowler, while Raf Macmillan and Tom Campbell will play the roles of the spinners in the final against India.</p>

IND U19 vs AUS U19 Final: Australia's Strongest Playing 11 for the final against India | U19 World Cup Final

<p>The International Cricket Council (ICC) recently unveiled the list of shortlisted players for the Player of the Tournament award of the 2024 Under-19 Cricket World Cup on Friday, February 9th. There are eight players on the shortlist, which is dominated by three members of the India Under-19 team: captain Uday Saharan, Saumy Pandey, and Musheer Khan, the younger brother of Sarfaraz Khan. The other players named are Aussie skipper Hugh Weibgen, Pakistani fast bowler Ubaid Shah, West Indian batsman Jewel Andrew, and South Africans Steve Solk and Kwena Maphaka.</p>



<p>Despite not being a part of the Under-19 World Cup Final, South African seamer Kwena Maphaka made a huge impact in this year?s U19 World Cup. The 17-year-old is currently the highest wicket taker in this tournament, with 21 scalps next to his name, which include three five wicket hauls. Kwena also managed to dismiss the likes of Adarsh Singh (0 runs), in-form batter Sachin Dhas (96 runs in 95 balls), and India U19 wicketkeeper Aravelly Avanish (10 runs in 18 balls) in the first semi-final match of the 2024 U19 World against the Indians, but unfortunately, Maphaka?s efforts went in vain as the Uday Saharan-led team emerged victorious by two wickets.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2024/02/Kwena-Maphaka.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-126436" /></figure>



<p>In addition to Kwena Maphaka, India U19 captain Uday Saharan and high-performing All-Rounder Musheen Khan are the top contenders for the Player of the Tournament award. Boys in Blue skipper Uday Saharan played a brilliant knock of 81 runs against South Africa in the first semi-final of the 2024 Under-19 World Cup and was awarded the Man of the Match award as his knock helped the Indians eliminate South Africa from the tournament and allowed the Boys in Blue to advance to the final of the 2024 Under-19 World Cup. Uday has overtaken teammate Musheer Khan in the list of the highest run getters in this year?s tournament, with 389 runs next to his name in six innings, which include three fifties and one century, at a brilliant average of 64.83.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2024/02/Musheer-Khan.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-126437" /></figure>



<p>On the other hand, the brother of Sarfaraz Khan, Musheer Khan, is the sole batter to score two hundred in the 2024 Under-19 World Cup. The 18-year-old notched up substantial scores against the likes of New Zealand and Ireland, and he is also in contention with skipper Uday Saharan for the title of leading run scorer in this year?s tournament. He has also managed to pick up six wickets at an outstanding economy of 3.32 and has caught the eye of everyone with his brilliant all-round abilities.</p>
