ICC U-19 World Cup: Sarfaraz told me to play with all my heart - Musheer

Musheer Khan did the right thing by imitating his prolific older brother Sarfaraz for everything linked to cricket. From the way Sarfaraz bats to how he thinks about winning every game, Musheer has taken a leaf out of his brother's book for most cricketing matters. He is reaping the rewards too. Musheer has been a revelation in India's dominant campaign in the U-19 World Cup so far, leading the run-scoring charts with 334 runs in five games. I have learnt a lot from Sarfaraz right from how he bats to how he is always thinking about winning the game for his team to how he builds his innings, he told the ICC of his brother who was part of the India squad for the second Test against England. Even as he was knocking on the doors of the Indian team, his focus was always on scoring runs and on the process without worrying about the result. My focus too is on the process. The first thing he told me (before the U19 World Cup) was that there is no bigger pride than playing for India. He t

India thrash Nepal by 132 runs to storm into U19 World Cup semifinal

Contrasting hundreds by Sachin Dhas and skipper Uday Saharan were the twin pillars on which India built their commanding 132-run win over Nepal in their final Super Six Group 1 match, which also carried them to the semifinals of the ICC Under-19 World Cup semifinals here on Friday. Dhas (116, 101 balls) and Saharan (100, 107 balls), who added 215 off 202 balls, lifted India from a tricky 62/3 to a formidable 297/5 after they opted to bat first. The tournament favourites, who now have eight points, then limited the Himalayan nation to 165 for nine and in the semis, India are all set to face South Africa at Benoni on Tuesday. However, Nepal made a rather strong start to their chase reaching 65 for 1 in the 14th over before they fell headlong, losing six wickets for a mere 12 runs to be placed at 77 for 7 in the 28th over. Left-arm spinner Saumy Pandey, who now has 16 wickets to be placed at the second spot in the tournament's highest wicket-taker list, sparked the collapse with figur

U-19 World Cup 2024: Arshin, Tiwari take India to 201-run win over USA

Arshin Kulkarni slammed a stroke-filled century before pacer Naman Tiwari's grabbed four wickets as India recorded a facile 201-run win over USA in their final group game of the U-19 World Cup here on Sunday. With the win, defending champions India continued their unbeaten run in the tournament. India, who had already sealed a super six berth having won their opening two games, head to the next stage as leaders of group A. Left-hand opener Arshin (108) starred with the bat with number three Musheer Khan (73) playing the perfect second fiddle as India piled on a mammoth 326 for five after being asked to bat. The bowlers, led by left-arm pacer Tiwari (4/20), then perfectly complemented the Indian batting unit, stopping minnows USA to a paltry 125 for 8 in 50 overs. USA never looked equipped to overhaul the huge target and their chase was off to a dodgy start as Tiwari and fellow pacer Raj Limbani (1/17) sizzled with the new-ball, running through the USA top-order in the first 10 ...

India win first Women's U-19 T20 World Cup with thumping win over England

India on Sunday won their maiden ICC title in women's cricket as a bunch of sprightly and talented teenagers lifted the inaugural U-19 World Cup with an emphatic seven-wicket victory over England. The Shafali Verma-led India U-19 squad managed to do what their seniors could not do by clearing the final hurdle in a global event. India first bundled out England for 68 in 17.1 overs and then returned to knock off the paltry target in 14 overs to lift the coveted trophy. "It is just a proud moment, its our first world cup," said Trisha with stumps in hand after the memorable win. The win on Sunday also reaffirms India's dominance at the U-19 level with the boys winning the world title in the Caribbean last year. India's bowling attack, led by pacer Titas Sadhu and supported by leg-spinner Parshavi Chopra, set up the comprehensive win on Sunday as they blew England away with a clinical display at Senwes Park. While Sadhu showed that Indian women pace bowling is in safe hands following
