- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR3.6 England draw first blood! George miscues this to point and it's an excellent catch. On a length outside off and George looks to drive. But he's not got to the pitch of this and the ball hits the outside half of the bat and flies to Ben Mayes' right , and he makes no mistake with a good low catch 20/125.3 oh my word, Sooryvanshi's gone! Back of a length with pace off, looks to unfurl the slog-sweep but it flicks the glove through to Rew! And just like that, the clinic is over. England needed that, clearly. But the applause will be long and loud as Sooryvanshi walks from the field. He gets handshakes from the England players as he goes. A masterclass from India's little master 251/318.6 Green gets the breakthrough! Slower short ball does the trick! A 142-run stand broken! Dug in short and angled into him, Mhatre was early in the pull and gets a top edge that carries to deep square leg. Green has his second and that will offer England some much needed respite! Mhatre departs having just reached his half-century 162/236.3 swung high leg side... and taken! Minto with another as England continue to claw some ground back (albeit from deep in the hole). Trivedi looking to flick this off his pads but miscues it high rather than far, and it's a simple take for deep square leg running in 308/534.2 flubbed to mid-off, Minto strikes! Back of a length, tries to bully it down the ground but gets cramped and only manages to slice across the ball. Loops into the safe hands of Dawkins. Minto provides England with a breath of fresh air 302/444.2 ramped without timing, taken at short fine leg! Low full toss and Kundu can't get the pace he was looking for as he moves across his stumps. But that was a little gem of an innings to get the scoreboard moving again 359/645.1 off stump flattened! Banged on a length and it skids through as Ambrish sits deep and looks to angle the ball through third. He misses, Minto hits and England have chalked off a seventh 367/746.4 Khilan holes out to deep midwicket! All height and no trousers as he heaves for the hills. Moores actually had to run quite a long way in, but takes a juggling catch at the second attempt 375/848.6 hoicked skyward, but it lands safe! Big top edge from a short ball, sails into no-man's land at midwicket. They race back looking for two as Rew collects in front of the stumps and breaks the bails with his elbow. Smart work from the England keeper, and Henil is just short! 393/9Extras9 (lb 1, w 8)TOTAL411/9 (50 Overs, RR: 8.22)Fall of wickets: 1-20 (Aaron George, 3.6 ov), 2-162 (Ayush Mhatre, 18.6 ov), 3-251 (Vaibhav Sooryavanshi, 25.3 ov), 4-302 (Vihaan Malhotra, 34.2 ov), 5-308 (Vedant Trivedi, 36.3 ov), 6-359 (Abhigyan Kundu, 44.2 ov), 7-367 (RS Ambrish, 45.1 ov), 8-375 (Khilan Patel, 46.4 ov), 9-393 (Henil Patel, 48.6 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR20.4 crunched... but held in the covers! More good work in the field, India chipping away. Dawkins has started to kick up through the gears but has to trudge off. Got hold of the lofted drive but it was too near to Khilan, who stuck out two hands going to his right and pouched a smart catch! 174/44.5 dragged on, Ambrish breaks through! Angled across the left-hander, Moores looking to be proactive again. Just a hint of seam movement back in and the ball cannons into the stumps via the inside edge. Leg stump out of the ground, India's bowlers on the board 19/112.6 top-edged on the reverse... and taken! India make the breakthrough, and it's the big wicket of Mayes. He has played that shot well, but Khilan just gets a bit of extra bounce this time. The ball swirls high into the deep, out towards point, well held on the run by Henil Patel 93/217.6 slapped, but straight to cover! Chouhan squeals in delight. India knock over the England captain. Looked like this was basically seam-up medium pace from Chouhan. Rew tried to make room and hammer it through the off side, but sent it with laser-guided precision to his opposite number 142/340.2 Is that it? Yes it is and India are six-time World Champions! It's heartbreak for Falconer, who's played a stunning knock, but India's 411 eventually proved to be too many runs Chouhan went full on off and Falconer backs away and looks to carve this behind point. It goes off the open face and Khilan dives in front from backward point to complete a stunning catch. Sensational way to cap off a sensational final. India win by 100 runs to win the Under-19 World Cup 2026! 311/1020.6 now a run-out, England beginning to wobble! Tossed up and cut to point, Khilan the fielder again. He parried it and then swooped with his other hand to fire off a throw. The calling was indecisive and Albert was nowhere in the picture as Kundu did the rest 174/521.4 short ball, steered to the keeper! Farhan gets cramped on the back foot, gloving behind - and England have lost 3 for 3 in seven balls! Effort ball from Devendran and India are suddenly all over this England innings 177/621.6 chipped back to the bowler! Morgan goes for a duck now. Sharp reaction catch for Devendran, eh somehow manages to hold it between his upper arm and body! England have lost 4 for 3 and are now looking down the barrel of a huge defeat 177/735.2 Sliced in the air, and taken! Ambrish does the trick and gets the breakthrough! Back of a length delivery cramping Minto for room. he backs away and tries to pull it away. Goes up off the edge and straight to the substitute fielder Enaan at backward point who gleefully makes his contribution in this World Cup final 269/837.6 Short ball has India one wicket away now! RS Ambrish at it again. Good bouncer, climbing on Lumsden, who tries to hook but can't get a hold of it at all. Vedant Trivedi runs in from deep square leg and holds on 281/9Extras5 (b 1, lb 2, w 2)TOTAL311 all out (40.2 Overs, RR: 7.71)Fall of wickets: 1-19 (Joseph Moores, 4.5 ov), 2-93 (Ben Mayes, 12.6 ov), 3-142 (Thomas Rew, 17.6 ov), 4-174 (Ben Dawkins, 20.4 ov), 5-174 (Ralphie Albert, 20.6 ov), 6-177 (Farhan Ahmed, 21.4 ov), 7-177 (Sebastian Morgan, 21.6 ov), 8-269 (James Minto, 35.2 ov), 9-281 (Manny Lumsden, 37.6 ov), 10-311 (Caleb Falconer, 40.2 ov)
