The first ball of this clash will be bowled at 6.30 pm IST (1 pm GMT). But as you all know, the buildup will begin well in advance. So please tune in early. Till then, Adios!

He adds that they did not bowl pretty well and they pulled things back later on by picking up some wickets and were happy to restrict India Under-19 to just over 300 runs, only because it was a good surface to bat on. Mentions that they were put on the back foot straightaway, maybe they could have been more proactive. Concludes by saying that they are playing South Africa Under-19 next and are looking forward to that game.

...THE PRESENTATION...
India Under-19 bowlers were brilliant with the ball right from the word go and they never let the Irish batters settle in. All the bowlers chipped in when needed and this has been a comprehensive performance from them. The new ball bowlers set the tone up front and picked crucial wickets. Spinners came to bowl later on and they kept things tight in the middle. The Indian bowlers did not give any freebies whatsoever to the Irish batters and that resulted in them picking up wickets at regular intervals. A total of 8 bowlers were used by captain Nishant Sindhu and none of the bowlers disappointed him. All in all, it was a comprehensive performance from India Under-19 as Ireland Under-19 were blown away by the Men in Blue.
Ireland batters had their task cut out, chasing a target of over 300 and one would think that they will go hard in the Powerplay. But, the Irish batters did now show any intent whatsoever in the first 10 overs and also lost 3 key wickets in the process. Their innings never really got going and nothing went their way. Joshua Cox held one end but he struggled to rotate the strike and as a result, he too perished. Scott MacBeth came in to bat later on and he was the only batter who showed some intent but it was too late for Ireland Under-19. They kept losing wickets at regular intervals and fell short by a huge margin in the end.
What a dominant display this has been from India Under-19! They secure their second consecutive win of the tournament and are through to the Super League Quarter Finals! Ireland Under-19 were completely outplayed in this game and they would be very disappointed with their performance.
