<p>India have been on a winning streak since the start of the group stage games, as they won all three group stage matches against Bangladesh, the USA, and Ireland. Then the Men in Blue took on New Zealand in their first Super Six match, and they turned that game into a one-sided affair as the Uday Sharan-led team defeated the Kiwi?s by a huge margin of 214 runs. Batting first, Sarfaraz Khan?s younger brother Musheer Khan played a phenomenal knock of 131 runs, which allowed the Men in Blue to post a mammoth total of 295 runs on the board.</p>



<p>In reply, the Kiwi?s were all out for a mere 81 runs as a four-wicket haul from Saumy Pandey (4-19) and a brace of wickets by Raj Limbani (2-17) &amp; Musheer Khan (2-10) handed New Zealand their biggest defeat against any team in the U19 ODI World Cup. Uday Sharan and Company would be looking to continue their unbeaten run in the tournament by winning their second Super Six game against Nepal.</p>

<p>Nepal, on the other hand, didn?t have a good group stage as they managed to win just a single game against Afghanistan by one wicket, which allowed them to barely qualify for the Super Six stage. They lost their other two group stage encounters against New Zealand and Pakistan. Nepal lost their first Super Six match vs. Bangladesh by five wickets as the Bengal Tigers easily chased down the target of 170 runs in 25 overs. The Nepalese team would be looking to end the Men in Blue?s unbeaten run in their final match ahead of the semi-finals.</p>

<p><strong>ICC U19 World Cup Semifinal:</strong> In what promises to be a thrilling fixture, defending champions India U19 and South Africa U19 are all set to lock horns against each other in the first semi-final match of the U19 ODI World Cup, scheduled to take place on the 6th of February at Willowmoore Park in Benoni. The match is set to commence at 1:30 p.m. IST.</p>



<div class="wp-block-rank-math-toc-block" id="rank-math-toc"><nav><div><div class=""><a href="#india-u-19-vs-south-africa-u-19-match-information">India U19 vs South Africa U19: Match Information</a></div><div class=""><a href="#willowmoore-park-pitch-report">Willowmoore Park Pitch Report</a></div><div class=""><a href="#india-u-19-vs-south-africa-u-19-semifinal-live-streaming-details">India U19 vs South Africa U19 Semifinal: Live Streaming Details</a></div><div class=""><a href="#india-u-19-vs-south-africa-u-19-squad">India U19 vs South Africa U19: Squad</a></div></div></nav></div>



<p>India have been on a winning streak since the start of the group stage games, as they won all three group stage matches against Bangladesh, the USA, and Ireland. Even in the Super Six, the Boys in Blue won comfortably against the likes of New Zealand and Nepal. In their previous encounter against Nepal, the Uday Saharan-led teams defeated Nepal by 132 runs, effectively defending a goal of 170. Opting to bat first, the Indians got off to a good start, with openers Arshin Kulkarni (18 runs in 30 balls) and Adarsh Singh (21 runs in 18 balls) combining for 26 runs. However, Gulsan Jha, the Nepali right-arm pacer, removed the latter in the fifth over of the Indian innings.</p>



<p>Following Adarsh Singh's departure, Priyanshu Moliya (19 runs in 36 balls) joined Arshin Kulkarni at the crease, and they formed a 32-run partnership for the second wicket. Unfortunately, their teamwork ended when Priyanshu was run out off Aakash Chand's bowling in the 14th over. Aakash Chand also took Arshin Kulkarni's wicket on the penultimate delivery of the 14th over, when Arshin nicked the ball behind into Nepali wicketkeeper Uttam Magar's gloves, limiting India to 62-3 in 14 overs.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2024/02/sachin-1.jpg" alt="India U19 Into The Semifinal of ICC U19 World Cup 2024; Became First Team to Qualify From Group 1" class="wp-image-126063" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Sachin Dhas Celebrates his century (Getty Images)</figcaption></figure>



<p>However, it took Nepal 33 more overs to make another breakthrough, with Sachin Dhas and Captain Uday Sharan dominating the game. Sachin Dhas was the aggressor in their 215-run partnership, scoring 116 runs in 101 balls with a strike rate of 114.85. Following Sachin's dismissal, Indian skipper Uday Sharan continued to lead from the front, scoring 100 runs in 107 balls as the Boys in Blue finished their innings with 297 runs in 50 overs.</p>



<p>In response, Nepal?s Under-19 team had a promising start with a 48-run opening partnership between Deepak Bohara (22 runs in 42 balls) and Arjun Kamal (26 runs in 64 balls). However, the dismissal of both batters by Raj Limbani (1-25) and left-arm spinner Saumy Pandey (4-29) triggered a collapse in Nepal?s batting unit. They concluded the game with a score of 165 runs for the loss of nine wickets in their allotted 50 overs, leading to the Boys in Blue winning the match by 132 runs.</p>



<p>Nepal?s pace bowler Gulsan Jha (3-56), Indian spinner Saumy Pandey (4-29), and medium-pacer Arshin Kulkarni (2-18) emerged as the standout bowlers in the match.</p>



<p>South Africa U19, on the other hand, had a decent group stage as they won comfortably against the West Indies and Scotland, but they were defeated by England in their second group stage match. Heading into the Super Six, the Proteas displayed tremendous form as they secured commanding victories against the likes of Zimbabwe and Sri Lanka. Against Sri Lanka U19, the Proteas batting unit managed to put a decent total of 232 runs on the boards thanks to the brilliant batting display of Lhuan-Dre Pretorius (71 runs in 77 balls) and good contributions from Riley Norton (41 runs in 69 balls) and Romashan Pillay (27 runs in 53 balls).</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2024/02/South-Africa-U19-2.jpg" alt="South Africa U19" class="wp-image-126155" /></figure>



<p>In reply, Sri Lanka suffered a top-order collapse as openers Pullindu Perera (0 runs), Sineth Jayawardena (6 runs in 13 balls), and Supun Waduge (0 runs) were sent back to the pavilion inside the first five overs of the Sri Lanka innings by fast bowler Kwena Maphaka (6-21 runs).</p>



<p>The middle order tried to stabilise things a bit with some decent run contributions by Dinura Kalupahana (19 runs in 24 balls), Hirun Kapurubandara (16 runs in 16 balls), and Sharujan Shanmuganathan (29 runs in 32 balls), but all three of them were dismissed by Maphaka and Riley Norton (4-28). Eventually, the Proteas inflicted an all-out on Sri Lanka as the Island Nation team was all out for 113 runs, and South Africa won the match by 119 runs.</p>



<p>India U19 would be looking to continue their unbeaten run and dominance with a win against South Africa, while the Proteas would like to crush the Boys in Blue?s hopes of qualifying for another U19 World Cup Final.</p>

<p>The pitch at Benoni?s Willowmoore Park is expected to be a batting surface, which would provide an adequate amount of help to the Fast Bowlers. Batsmen from both teams will enjoy batting at this ground since the ball comes on to the bat easily, and the boundaries of this stadium are pretty small as well, allowing the batters to play big shots fearlessly.</p>



<p>The Seamers will have to hit the deck hard and bowl with discipline if they want to get the better of the batters. By hitting the deck hard, seamers will extract bounce from the surface, which might trouble the opposing batters. Spinners are expected to come into play in the later half of the game.</p>

<p><strong>ICC U19 World Cup 2024:</strong> In what promises to be an intriguing match, defending champions India U19 and South Africa U19 are all set to face off in the first semi-final of the U19 ODI World Cup on February 6th at Willowmoore Park in Benoni. The match begins at 1:30 p.m. IST.</p>



<p>India has been on a winning streak from the start of the group stage games, and they finished first in their group after winning all three group stage matches against Bangladesh, the United States, and Ireland. Even in the Super Six, the Boys in Blue easily defeated New Zealand and Nepal, acquiring the first position in Super Six Group 1 with eight points. Uday Sharan's Boys in Blue dominated the game against New Zealand U19, winning by 214 runs. In the following game against Nepal, the Uday Saharan-led team won by 132 runs, effectively defending a 297-run goal. The Indians are in excellent form and will be eager to beat the Junior Proteas in the semi-finals and go to another U19 World Cup final.</p>



<p>South Africa U19 had a satisfactory group stage, securing comfortable victories against the West Indies and Scotland, although they faced defeat against England in their second group stage match. Transitioning into the Super Six, the Proteas showcased impressive form with convincing wins over Zimbabwe and Sri Lanka. Against Zimbabwe U19, the Junior Proteas clinched victory by nine wickets. In their match against Sri Lanka, Kwena Maphaka's six-wicket haul and Riley Norton's four-wicket contribution propelled the Junior Proteas to a convincing 119-run win over the Island Nation's team. Now, the Junior Proteas aim to disrupt India's momentum by defeating them in the semi-finals.</p>



<p>Talking about India?s playing 11 for the match against South Africa, Adarsh Singh and Arshin Kulkarni are expected to open the innings for the Boys in Blue in the first semi-final match of the 2024 U19 World Cup. Adarsh Singh has been in really good form with the bat, as he has scored 191 runs in five matches, including two half centuries, and those two 50+ run innings came against the likes of New Zealand U19 (52 runs) and Bangladesh U19 (76 runs). Adarsh would be looking to play another good knock against South Africa and help his team qualify for another U19 World Cup Final.</p>



<p>Arshin Kulkarni, Adarsh Singh's opening partner and batting all-rounder, has 174 runs under his belt at an average of 34.80, including one century against the USA U19 (108 runs). Aside from his 108-run effort, Arshin has not done much with the bat, and he will need to produce large runs if he wants to ensure that India avoids struggling against South Africa's formidable bowling attack.</p>



<p>The brother of Sarfaraz Khan and the highest run getter in the current edition of the 2024 U19 World Cup, Musheer Khan, is expected to come in to bat at number three. With the bat, Musheer has managed to score 334 runs in five matches at an unbelievable average of 83.50, which includes two centuries and one half century. His first hundred came against Ireland in India?s second group stage match, where he played a brilliant knock of 118 runs, which consisted of nine fours and four sixes.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2024/02/South-Africa-U19-2.jpg" alt="South Africa U19" class="wp-image-126155" /></figure>



<p>He then played the best knock of this tournament against New Zealand when he scored 131 runs in 126 balls at a strike rate of 103.96. With his left-arm orthodox bowling, he has dismissed batters four times in five games, with his best figures being 2-10 against New Zealand. Musheer would be looking to perform at his best once again against South Africa and help India defeat the Junior Proteas in the first semi-final.</p>



<p>Indian skipper Uday Saharan would come in to bat at number four, and he has been nothing short of excellent with the bat for the Indians. He?s the second-highest run scorer in this year?s U19 World Cup, as he has managed to get 308 runs in his bag in five matches, which consists of one century and two fifties. He scored his lone century of 100 runs in the previous match against Nepal, and he would like to play another big knock against South Africa.</p>



<p>CSK wicketkeeper Aravelly Avanish will be donning the wicket-keeping gloves against South Africa in the semi-final. He has been really good with his glovework, but with the bat, he hasn?t done much, as he has yet to register a single fifty in this year?s U19 World Cup. He has scored just 74 runs in five matches, with a best score of 23 runs. He would like to improve with the bat and help his side deal with the threat of South Africa in the semi-final.</p>



<p>Priyanshu Molliya will be batting at number six, and he will be expected to play the role of the finisher. He has been decent with the bat, and he would be looking to provide the Indians with a good finish in the later half of their batting innings.</p>



<p>The number seven position will be occupied by Sachin Dhas. Though his primary role is that of a finisher, he showed in the match against Nepal that he can play the role of a proper middle-order batter and inning stabilizer with his knock of 116 runs at a strike rate of 114.85. He can bat higher up the order as well, according to the demands of the situation, and he will play an important role in India?s success against South Africa.</p>



<p>Murugan Abhishek, Naman Tiwari, Raj Limbani, and Saumy Pandey will form the bowling unit of the Boys in Blue. Murugan Abhishek and Saumy Pandey will be the main spinners of the Boys in Blue, while Naman Tiwari and Raj Limbani will play the roles of the fast bowlers.</p>



<p>Raj Limbani (five wickets) and Saumy Pandey (16 wickets) will be the most important bowlers for the Boys in Blue, and both of them will play crucial roles in the Uday Saharan-led team?s hopes of qualifying for yet another final.</p>

<p><strong>ICC U19 World Cup 2024:</strong> The ICC U19 World Cup 2024 is in its last stage with just the knockout stage left to be played. The 16-team tournament saw plenty of batting and bowling performances that proved to be game-changing. Here we are with the list of players with the most sixes and most fours in the ICC U19 World Cup 2024.</p>



<div class="wp-block-rank-math-toc-block" id="rank-math-toc"><nav><ul><li class=""><a href="#most-sixes-icc-u-19-world-cup-2024">Most SIXES: ICC U19 World Cup 2024</a></li><li class=""><a href="#most-fours-icc-u-19-world-cup-2024">Most FOURS: ICC U19 World Cup 2024</a></li></ul></nav></div>



<p>16 teams fought for as many as 16 days and we finally got our first finalists of the tournament- India U19. The four qualified teams for the semifinals were: India-Pakistan from Group 1 and Australia-South Africa from Group 2. India U19 defeated South Africa U19 and now winner of Australia U19 vs Pakistan U19 will play India U19 in the finals.</p>



<p>This tournament saw a lot of one-sided contests that resulted in teams winning by huge margins. India U19, for instance, have won 3 matches with a margin of more than 200 runs. This shows how brutal the batting would have been and how lethal it would be bowling. </p>



<p>The home team South Africa were the first team to qualify for the ICC U19 World Cup 2024 semifinal and now are the first team to get eliminated after loss against India U19 in Semifinal 1.</p>



<p>Steve STOLK of South Africa has hit the most number of Sixes in the tournament till now. The local boy opens for the U19 team and is well known for his aggressive game at the top. He has struck 11 sixes in the 6 innings in the tournament. Indian top-order batter Musheer Khan follows him with 8 sixes. Khan is also the second-highest run-scorer in the World Cup averaging over 67 in the 6 innings.</p>

<p>Dewan Marais has played 5 innings and equals the number of sixes with Musheer Khan. Then comes the Pakistani opener Shahzaib Khan with 7 sixes in 5 innings. Another Indian batter in the top 10 of the list is Sachin Dhas with 7 sixes in 6 innings. </p>



<p>One South African opener owns the most sixes title and the other owns the most fours title. Lhuan-Dre PRETORIUS has smashed a total of 37 fours in his 5 innings which also includes 6 fours in the last match against India. He is followed by his compatriot Steve Stolk with 31 fours.</p>



<p>Musheer Khan of India is third as he owns 29 fours. Sachin Dhas smacked 11 fours in his incredible 96-run knock in the semifinal and now holds the 5th spot with 28 fours and a batting average of 73 runs.</p>

<p><strong>ICC U19 World Cup 2024:?</strong><a href="https://www.icccricketschedule.com/category/cricket-team/icc-teams/india/">India</a>?U19 have successfully qualified for the ICC U19 World Cup 2024 FINAL after a dramatic match. India U19 defeated the home team South Africa U19 in semifinal 1 and became the first team in the ongoing tournament to officially qualify for the U19 World Cup final.</p>



<div class="wp-block-rank-math-toc-block" id="rank-math-toc"><nav><ul><li class=""><a href="#india-u-19-vs-south-africa-u-19-match-summary">India U19 vs South Africa U19: Match Summary</a></li><li class=""><a href="#india-u-19-vs-south-africa-u-19-scorecard">India U19 vs South Africa U19: Scorecard</a><ul><li class=""><a href="#south-africa-u-19-244-7-50">South Africa U19- 244/7 (50)</a></li><li class=""><a href="#india-u-19-248-8-48-5">India U19- 248/8 (48.5)</a></li></ul></li></ul></nav></div>



<p>What a match! This is what happens when the two quality sides clash in a vital contest for a vital purpose. India U19 won the match in the end by 2 wickets but the match was hanging in balance throughout. An exceptional comeback of India from where they were in the first 12 overs. South Africa were losing it but back-to-back wickets towards the end revived them a little but it was India, who won the game.</p>



<p>Brilliant knock of 96 by Sachin Dhas and 81 by Uday Saharan ensured India's ticket to yet another final of the U19 World Cup. India are now the first finalists of the tournament and they will play the winner of Australia U19 vs Pakistan U19 (semifinal 2) in the finals of the tournament.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="india-u-19-vs-south-africa-u-19-match-summary"><strong>India U19 vs South Africa U19: Match Summary</strong></h2>



<p>India won the toss and invited the home team to bat first. It just took 17 balls from Limbani to give India a happy start at the top and remove the aggressive Steve Stolk. Soon he took David Teeger on a Duck. The wicketkeeper-batter Lhuan-dre Pretorius and Richard Seletswane weaved a 70-odd runs partnership and Musheer Khan broke the partnership by dismissing Pretorius playing at 73 runs.</p>

<p>Oliver Whitehead charged at Musheer Khan but ended up being his second scalp. Richard was looking good but watching wickets falling at the other end put him under pressure and Naman Tiwari finally ended his fabulous innings at 64 runs. Cameos from skipper James and Tristan Luus helped South Africa to reach a par score of 244 runs in 50 overs.</p>



<p>India U19 needed 245 runs in 300 balls and they got the worst possible start at the top as the in-form opener Adarsh Singh went back to the pavilion on the very first ball of the innings. India's highest run scorer in the tournament Musheer Khan, Kulkarni and Priyanshy Moliya were knocked out by exceptional bowling performances by Tristan Luus and were 4 down in just 32 runs in a chase of 245.</p>



<p>Again, the saviors from the last match, i.e., skipper Uday Saharan and Sachin Dhas came to the rescue. They both first relaxed down the pressure and then unleashed the counterattack. They together added 180 runs for the 5th wicket where Sachin Dhas played the anchor role and smacked 96 runs in 95 balls. He missed his century by just 4 runs and fell prey to Kwena Maphaka.</p>

<p>India U19 still needed 45 runs off 8 overs. Uday was watchful at the other end and didn't allow South African bowlers to build pressure. India lost two quick wickets in 3 balls which gave the home team a glimpse of hope but Raj Limbani entered the square with another plan. He smacked a six when India were going under pressure. India needed 2 runs when the skipper got run out at 81 runs but Raj Limbani ensured India's ticket to the final with no further damage and India won the game by 2 wickets.</p>

India U19 Into The FINAL of ICC U19 World Cup 2024; Became First Team to Qualify

india-u19-into-the-final-of-icc-u19-world-cup-2024-became-first-team-to-qualify

<p><strong>(7 FEB) ICC U19 World Cup 2024:</strong> An incredible knock by skipper Uday Saharan and Sachin Dhas led India U19 to book another U19 World Cup final as they snatched a win out of South Africa's grip in a cut-throat semifinal match. The Indian captain also leads the most runs in the tournament list followed by Musheer Khan and Sachin Dhas. We brought to you the latest updated list of Players with the most runs and most wickets after India U19 vs South Africa U19 semifinal.</p>



<div class="wp-block-rank-math-toc-block" id="rank-math-toc"><nav><ul><li class=""><a href="#most-runs-icc-u-19-world-cup-2024-player-rankings-1-10">Most Runs: ICC U19 World Cup 2024 ?

<p>The U19 World Cup 2024 semifinal 1 was a pure entertainer where the game was wavering throughout the course of 50 overs of the chase. India U19 who have always batted first in the tournament took a bold decision of bowling first in the semifinal after winning the toss. </p>



<p>South Africa's offensive play in the early and late stages of their innings allowed them to attain a respectable score despite a significant slowdown in the middle overs. The home team posted the target of 245 in 50 overs courtesy of 64 from Richard and 76 from wicketkeeper-batter Pritorious.</p>



<p>Even after losing four wickets for thirty-two runs in 12 overs, Sachin Dhas and captain Uday Saharan managed to hold onto the crease. After they forged a strong partnership of more than 170 runs, Saharan and Sachin Dhas's outstanding stand helped India pull off a thrilling chase.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2024/02/ind-1-e1707236659608.jpg" alt="India U19 Into The FINAL of ICC U19 World Cup 2024; Became First Team to Qualify" class="wp-image-126314" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Uday-Dhas partnership ensures India's Final ticket (Getty Images)</figcaption></figure>



<p>A bit of a fumble towards the end where India lost two wickets for just a run and the skipper also got runout, but Raj Limbani ensured no further damage and took the team home with a boundary. India U19 won the game by two wickets.</p>



<p>Indian youths are exhibiting some of the finest performances on the pitch, which has given them a lot of confidence. In addition to captain Uday Saharan and top-order batsman Musheer Khan, who are in peak form, Sachin Dhas also owns a century and a 96. While left-arm orthodox Saumy Pandey is India's leading wicket-taker in the event, he is receiving strong support from the team's pace attack.</p>



<p>Kwena Maphaka was a tournament mvp for South Africa. He collected three fifers and a total of 21 scalps. With 21 wickets in the competition, the 17-year-old came very close to matching Bangladesh's Enamul Haque Jr.'s (2014) record of 22 wickets for the most wickets in a single Under-19 World Cup edition.</p>

<p>Down below is the updated list of players with the most runs and the most wickets in the ICC U19 World Cup 2024:</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="most-runs-icc-u-19-world-cup-2024-player-rankings-1-10"><strong>Most Runs: ICC U19 World Cup 2024 ? Player Rankings 1-10</strong></h2>



<p>Indian Skipper Uday Saharan after his brilliant knock of 81 runs led the team to the doorstep of victory and also helped him to lead the most runs tally with a total of 389 runs in 6 matches. The Indian batsman Musheer Khan follows him in the batting statistics. After six matches, Khan has scored 338 runs, making him the tournament?s second-highest run scorer.</p>



<p>Sachin Dhas holds the third spot. It is quite interesting that the top three ranks of most runs scored are held by Indian batters and that also shows the dominance of India in the tournament. South Africa's Lhuan-Dre&nbsp;PRETORIUS holds the fourth spot with a total of 287 runs and his journey will end here in this tournament. </p>

<p>With 21 wickets, South African bowler Kwena MAPHAKA remains the tournament's most wicket-taker after taking three crucial wickets against India U19 in the semifinal. With one wicket during the game, Indian spinner Saumy Pandey is tied for second place with Ubaid Shah.</p>



<p>In the last Super Six match, Ubaid Shah of Pakistan took a fifer against Bangladesh U19, moving him up to second place in the standings with 17 wickets. Semifinal 2 match between Pakistan U19 and Australia U19 will determine who advances to play India U19 in the Finals.</p>

ICC U19 World Cup 2024: Players with Most Runs and Most Wickets (7 FEB) Updated After IND vs SA Semifinal | Player Rankings 1 ? 10

icc-u19-world-cup-2024-players-with-most-runs-and-most-wickets-7-feb-updated-after-ind-vs-sa-semifinal-player-rankings-1-10

<p><strong>ICC Under-19</strong> World Cup 2024 Final: The two best teams of this year's U19 World Cup, India U19 and Australia U19, are all set to take on each other in the final of the 2024 U19 World Cup. The match is scheduled to take place on the 11th of February at Benoni's Willowmoore Park Stadium, and the game will commence at 1:30 p.m. IST.</p>



<p>India, under the leadership of Uday Saharan, has been on a winning streak since the beginning of their group stage games, and they topped their group after securing victories in all three group stage matches against the United States, Bangladesh, and Ireland. In the Super Six, the Boys in Blue easily defeated Nepal and New Zealand and topped Super Six Group 1 with eight points. Uday Sharan's Boys in Blue dominated the game against New Zealand U19, winning by 214 runs. In the next game against Nepal, the Uday Saharan-led team won by 132 runs, effectively defending a target of 297 runs. Then Uday Saharan and company locked horns against the hosts South Africa in Semi-Final 1 of the 2024 U19 World Cup and won the game thanks to the match-winning efforts of in-form batsman Sachin Dhas (96 runs in 95 balls) and skipper Uday Saharan (81 runs in 124 balls).</p>



<p>The Junior Proteas rode on the back of fifties from openers Lhuan Dre-Pretorius (76 runs in 102 balls) and Richard Seletswane (64 runs in 100 balls) to post 244 runs in 50 overs and set a target of 245 runs for the Indians to qualify for their ninth U19 World Cup Final. In reply, the Boys in Blue suffered a top-order collapse as the trio of Adarsh Singh, Arshin Kulkarni, and Musheer Khan were sent packing to the pavilion inside the first ten overs of India's batting innings. But the deadly duo of Indian skipper Uday Saharan and Sachin Dhas with their outstanding knocks, steadied the Indian ship and helped the Boys in Blue qualify for the final of the U19 World Cup.</p>



<p>Talking about the Australians, they have been undefeated in this edition of the U19 World Cup as well. The Kangaroos managed to win comfortably against Sri Lanka, Zimbabwe, and Namibia in the group-stage matches, and in the Super Six, Hugh Weibgen and his troops defeated rivals England by a big margin of 110 runs. Their second Super Six game against the Windies ended without any result due to rain, and if rain hadn't interfered with that encounter, the mighty Australians could have gone on to defeat the West Indies, as they were looking in a pretty strong position to secure a victory.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2024/02/Australia-1.jpg" alt="India vs Australia In U19 World Cup FINAL as Australia U19 Beat Pakistan U19 In Semifinal | ICC U19 World Cup 2024" class="wp-image-126396" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">India vs Australia In U19 World Cup FINAL (Getty Images)</figcaption></figure>



<p>Against Pakistan, Hugh Weibgen and his boys managed to secure a nail-biting one-wicket win in the second semi-final. Tom Straker (6-24) wrecked havoc with his bowling as the Saad Baig-led team were bundled 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 the Pakistani team. It looked like a walk in the park for the Aussie batters, but the dangerous Pakistani bowling attack troubled them a lot as Ali Raza, with his four wicket haul, almost took the Saad Baig-led team to the Final of the U19 World Cup but Harry Dixon (50 runs in 75 balls), Ollie Peake (49 runs in 75 balls), and the finishing touches applied by Raf Macmillan (19 runs in 29 balls*) helped Australia qualify for the <strong>Final</strong>.</p>



<p>The 2024 U19 World Cup <strong>Final</strong> between defending champions India U19 and three-time winners Australia U19 will be nothing short of entertaining, as the arch rivals will battle it out against each other to get their hands on the Youth World Cup Trophy. The seniors took on each other in the 2023 ODI World Cup final, where Pat Cummins led his side to a record sixth World Cup title, and it remains to be seen whether Hugh Weibgen will follow in the footsteps of the seniors or not.</p>

ICC Under 19 World Cup 2024 Final: India U19 vs Australia U19 Match Details, Full Squad and Live Streaming Details

icc-under-19-world-cup-2024-final-india-u19-vs-australia-u19-match-details-full-squad-and-live-streaming-details

<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>



<p>Down below is the shortlisted players for the Player of the Tournament award of the Under-19 World Cup</p>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Shortlisted players for the Player of the Tournament award </strong></h3>

ICC Unveils the shortlisted players for the Player of the Tournament award of the Under-19 World Cup

<p><strong>(12 Feb) ICC U19 World Cup 2024:</strong> A bit of D?j? vu moments for India and the World as Australia won the U19 World Cup Title defeating India. An acceptable batting show followed by an even better bowling performance by the young Australian marked the title to their names. Skipper Uday Saharan ended as the tournament's highest run scorer, and South African Kwena Maphaka came as the highest wicket-taker. This post leads you to the final updated list of Players with the most runs and most wickets in the ICC U19 World Cup 2024.</p>

<p>It won't be wrong if we say the old days of the "Multi-format Domination of Australia" are back. Australian Women are the defending Champions of the ODI as well as the T20 World Cup in the Women's division. The Australian Men's team won the coveted WTC Title in 2023 defeating India, defeated India in the ODI World Cup 2023 Final, and now also won the U19 World Cup title defeating India. They will be eyeing the T20 World Cup scheduled to be played this year in the West Indies and the USA.</p>

<p>Once again, a left-handed top-order batsman with a natural attacking instinct proved to be a nightmare for Indian bowlers. Australia's leading scorer, Harjas Singh, finished with 55 runs. Dixon, Oliver Peake, and Captain Weibgen all made significant contributions to their team's 253/7 total.</p>



<p>On a pitch with plenty of pace, bounce, and lateral movement, it proved to be too much for the Indian hitters. In the powerplay, they were lackluster as Musheer Khan and Arshin Kulkarni failed early. After getting off to a strong start, Uday Saharan's square drive fully backfired. Any possibility of an Indian victory ended when Sachin Dhas, the star of the semi-final, was caught behind and out.</p>



<p>Adarsh Singh took his time on the powerplay, chewing up too many balls despite scoring a crucial 47. Sadly, the Indian batting, which has been their main strength for the whole of the competition, was unable to demonstrate its abilities in this crucial finale and was defeated handily in the title match.</p>



<p>Down below is the updated list of players with the most runs and the most wickets in the ICC U19 World Cup 2024:</p>

<p>Indian Skipper Uday Saharan has been the top scorer of the tournament. He stood for the team at the moments when the team needed him. He scored 397 runs in the tournament in 7 matches with an average of 56.71. He is followed by his countryman Musheer Khan. Khan was equally impressive throughout the tournament as he amassed 360 runs in 7 innings at an average of 60.</p>



<p>Australian opener Harry Dixon ended as the third-highest run-scorer of the tournament with 309 runs in 7 innings. Australian skipper Hugh Weibgen is ranked fourth with 304 runs in seven innings. Sachin Dhas, the backbone of India's middle order in the tournament ended fifth with 303 runs in total 7 innings with an average of over 60. The top five spots are occupied by Indian and Australian players which directly says why these two teams were in the final of the tournament.</p>

<p><span>India pacer Jasprit Bumrah has been advised complete bed rest by the doctors following the back swelling that he developed during the last match of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25. As per the reports in Times India, it is learned that the fast bowler's return to action so far seems to have no clarity.</span><span><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span></p>
<p><span>Jasprit Bumrah has been advised bed rest so that his muscles recover and the swelling gets over. Following that, he will be moving to the newly built NCA of the BCCI, which is known as the Center of Excellence for his recovery and rehabilitation process.</span><span><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span></p>
<p><span>The BCCI are hopeful that the fast bowler doesn't have a disc bulge or muscle swelling, which is of a higher grade. This might rule him out of cricketing action for a longer period of time and leave a massive void in the Indian team, especially with important assignments around the corner.</span><span><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span><span></span></p>
<p><span>The Board of Control for India doesn't want to rush Jasprit Bumrah back into the action. So far, there hasn't been any clarity on what is the exact nature of the injury, but if it's more than the back swelling, then there are chances his return could take longer than expected.</span><span><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span></p>
<h2><span><span class="Apple-converted-space">Hope it's not a disc bulge or a muscle swelling which is of a higher grade - BCCI source on Jasprit Bumrah </span></span></h2>
<p><span>A source close to BCCI confirmed the development, saying that they will be deciding on a future course of action once there is clarity. He said that they want to make sure that talent like Bumrah is preserved. Speaking to the Times of India, he explained:</span><span><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span></p>
<p><span>"Bumrah could go to the CoE next week, but right now, there is no fixed date yet. He has been advised bed rest at home to help the muscles recover and the swelling to subside. Once that is done, the future course of action will be ascertained," said a well-placed source.</span><span><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span></p>
<p><span>"Bed rest doesn't sound good. I hope it's not a disc bulge or a muscle swelling which is of a higher grade. The approach has to be similar with him - wrap him in cotton wool and preserve the talent like him," added the source.</span><span><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span></p>
<p><span>Earlier, there were reports which claimed that Jasprit Bumrah would be back in action during the later stages of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. The report said that the pacer will miss the league stage and could return to action during the semi-final and final.</span></p>

<p><span>The discussion between Gautam Gambhir, Ajit Agarkar, Rohit Sharma and BCCI officials during the review meeting has been coming out in the media slowly. The higher authorities in Indian cricket talked about the poor performances of the team late in the Test and the ODIs.</span><span><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span><span></span></p>
<p><span>The reports in Dainik Jagran revealed that Gautam Gambhir and his coaching staff were asked by the BCCI for the reasons behind the poor performances. However, one of the members of the support staff came up with the massive reasons behind the team's poor performance.</span><span><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span><span></span></p>
<p><span>As per the reports, it is learned that the member of the support staff blamed IPL for the team's poor performance in the Tests. He reportedly said that big IPL contracts were one of the biggest reasons why the players weren't on top of the money with their performances.</span><span><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span></p>
<p><span>One of the members of the team management said that IPL contracts were the reason why the players didn't play with full intensity and commitment in the Tests. This was one of the reasons given by Gautam Gambhir and his staff for the loss in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25.</span><span><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span></p>

<p><span>India looked extremely torrid with the bat and ball in the Test series against Australia. They won the first match of the series in Perth, but after that, nothing went their way as they faced humiliation in all the remaining games of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25.</span><span><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span></p>
<p><span>India faced a horrific 10-wicket loss in Adelaide, and then, thanks to rain in Gabba, the game ended in a draw. In the Melbourne Cricket Ground Test, the Rohit Sharma-led side faced an 184-run thrashing before bagging a 6-wicket loss in the last game at the Sydney Cricket Ground in Sydney.</span><span><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span></p>
<p><span>The change in the Test team is likely to happen soon. BCCI soon will be taking a massive step ahead of the England Test series. The five-match series between the teams is all set to take place in June next year and it remains to be seen what will be the future of the team.</span></p>

<p><span>With performances not going in the team's way, there were reports of unrest in the Indian dressing room, especially after the fourth Test. As reported by the Indian Express, head coach Gautam Gambhir was unhappy with the way the team performed and said harsh words to the players that they now have to play in his way.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span><span></span></p>
<p><span>Also, there were reports which claimed that some Mr Fix-It had raised his hand to take over the captaincy of the team, especially with the side struggling. He boldly said that he is the right man to take the team forward and is ready to be the interim captain of the team during the transition phase.</span><span><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span></p>

<p><span>Gautam Gambhir reportedly told the BCCI about Sarfaraz Khan's act.

<p>31-year-old Usman Qadir, the son of Pakistan's legendary spinner Abdul Qadir, has shocked the entire world of Cricket as he has decided to leave his home country and has shifted his focus to Australia in order to start a new chapter in his Cricketing Journey</p>
<p>The leg spinner, who featured in 25 T20 Internationals and a single One-Day International, with a combined total of 32 scalps to his name, is currently plying his trade for the Hawkesbury Cricket Club of Sydney. </p>
<p>Having previously demonstrated his skills in the Big Bash with the Adelaide Strikers &amp; Perth Scorchers, Usman has also featured in matches for Australia's Prime Minister's XI and the team of South Australia. </p>
<p>Despite retiring from Pakistan Cricket in 2024, the 31-year-old has high hopes about his future Cricket endeavors in Australian Cricket.</p>
<p>Speaking about his decision of moving to Australia, Usman said, " My livelihood is the beloved sport of Cricket. I have goals for the future and am committed to taking advantage of the fantastic chances that Australia has to offer."</p>
<p>On the 3rd of October, 2024, Qadir had announced his decision to officially retire from Pakistan Cricket and this decision had come four years after returning to Pakistan from Australia in order to commit his International future to the National Team. </p>
<p>Qadir wrote an emotional message on his social media handles as he reflected on his career: " Today, I announce the decision of leaving Pakistan Cricket. I want to sincerely thank you all as I think back on this incredible adventure. Representing my nation has been a tremendous honor, and I am grateful for the encouragement of my teammates and coaches who have stood by me the entire time," he stated.</p>
<p>Usman's International Cricket career started off on an incredible note during the T20 International seris versus Zimbabwe. He dismissed eight batters in three contests, which also helped him earn the Man-of-the-series award. </p>
<p>During his peak days, the 31-year-old was the main leg-spinner of the Green Shirts for a brief period of time, keeping his fellow compatriot Shadab Khan out of the T20 International playing 11.</p>
<p>However, disappointing displaye and limited-chances led to him taking the harsh decision of leaving Pakistan Cricket. It remains to be seen whether he will be given the chance to make his debut for the Australian Men's Cricket Team Or not.</p>

<p>Smriti Mandhana has been the best all-format women's cricketer for Team India for a while now. She is consistently scoring runs and breaking records with her bat. That's what she did in the ongoing ODI match against the Ireland women. The third game between India women and Ireland women is underway at Niranjan Shah Stadium in Rajkot.</p>
<p>India won the toss and decided to bat first. Captain Mandhana, along with youngster Pratika Rawal, went on to register a massive opening stand. Both batters added 233 runs in just 26.4 overs. This is the fourth 100-run opening stand between the opening duo for India in just 6 innings.</p>
<p>Mandhana slammed her 10th WODI ton and reached the landmark in just 70 balls. With that, she recorded the fastest ODI hundred by an Indian women's cricketer. She went past Harmanpreet Kaur's tally of an 87-ball hundred. With this, the Indian opener also achieved a number of records.</p>
<h2>Smriti Mandhana creates havoc with her 70-ball ton in third ODI in Rajkot</h2>
<p>The left-hander reached her century off just 70 balls and registered the fastest ODI ton by an Indian women cricketer. This was her 10th ton in this format, and she became the first Indian to reach the double figure in ODI centuries by an Indian women cricketer. Now, she has the joint-third most centuries in WODIs.</p>
<p>Australia's Meg Lanning (15), New Zealand's Suzie Bates (13), and England's Tammy Beaumont (10) are ahead of her only. Mandhana got out after scoring 135 runs off just 80 balls, with 12 fours and seven sixes, with a strike rate of 168.75. With this, she also equalled Harmanpreet's record for most sixes by an Indian women cricketer in an ODI innings.</p>
<p>Harmanpreet did it against Australia during the 2017 Women's ODI World Cup when she slammed an unbeaten 171 off 115 balls. The left-hander has scored 996 runs since 2024 in WODIs in just 16 innings with four half-centuries and five centuries, while no other batter has reached even the 700-run mark.</p>
<p>She also added the third-highest opening stand of 233 along with Pratika in this game. Notably, Mandhana is leading the team as Harmanpreet has been rested from this series. India have already won the first two games, and they are looking for a 3-0 whitewash here.</p>
