IND Under-19 vs USA U19, 23rd Match, Group A at Bloemfontein, U19 World Cup, Jan 28 2024 - Ball by Ball Commentary
5.30pm As one-sided a win as it can get for India, but they're well-oiled going into the Super Sixes. They'll also carry points into that stage, having beaten both Ireland and Bangladesh.
Tonight's win was set up by Arshin Kulkarni, who struck a superb hundred. He was well supported by Musheer Khan who brought up his second straight fifty-plus score in the competition, as the pair put together 155, They were largely in second and third gear for much of the partnership before the lower middle order fired them past 320.
USA's chase never got off the blocks and from very early on, they seemed quite content to play out the overs, which they somehow managed to in the end. They bow out of the competition with three losses and plenty of learnings.
