India (252) thrash Pakistan (194) by 58 runs in match 38 of ICC Men's U19 World Cup 2026

[Devadwal]

2nd six of the over. Nice

 

[Bhaijaan]

Carnage.

47(27) this partnership now.

Sixes flying off

 

[Human786]

Great partnership here.

I think they have completely taken the game from Pakistan. Never mind 30 overs we will fail to chase this full stop.

superb stuff , game definitely on ... 248/7

 

[Devadwal]

250, Pakistan have to chase in 33.2 overs.

 

[PakFan2010]

If Chouhan and Patel can bat at a strike rate of 130, then Pakistan's top 6 can do it.

 

[Devadwal]

Gone. Eight Down , Still 5 ball left , should score 5 runs atleast instead bundling out.

Every run will be important when chasing the target for NRR

 

[Devadwal]

That is preety good catch according to Pakistan standard.

251/9 .

Great to see a tough of Vedic heritage still living within Pakistan to this day.

Ancestors will be proud, brother.

 

[Bhaijaan]

250, Pakistan have to chase in 33.2 overs.

If they pull it off, they would deserve to lift the trophy. I wish them well. They’re our brotherly nation let’s never forget that dear.

 

[hamzie]

game on?

 

[BouncerGuy]

India U19 bowled out for 252 setting 253-run target for Pakistan U19 in crucial game of Super Six stage of the ICC U19 Men's World Cup 2026

 

[Blackbradman]

They aren't getting 250 from now

Nice

 

[Usman Chadda]

game on?

Our batting besides Minhas is absolute pants.

They are not chasing 250 in 50 overs, forget 33 overs lol

 

[Blackbradman]

Ind are 153-5 after 35, I don't get where these commies keep on getting 250 for India from. They only have 1 or 1.5 batters left.

Great

 

[hamzie]

Pakistan need to chase in 33.3 overs if they make exactly 253. Can take up to 34.3 overs if they finish with a six (258).


hopefully they dont have that afghanistan like brain fade if they get close

 

[Devadwal]

tPakistan will have to chase this down in 33.3 overs to reach the final ​

 

[Katwalindian]

I don't think they will chase it forget about 33 overs.......

 

[Rana]

Fortune favours the brave

Go for it

 

[G0rmintAunty]

Great

They wouldn't have gotten to 250 if the fielders weren't brought in for the last 4 overs for slow over rate.

 

[mango_bite77]

There is no point playing risk free cricket. The goal is to win within 33 overs. Taking more than 33 overs and wining has no value

 

[BouncerGuy]

Pakistan need to chase in 33.3 overs if they make exactly 253. Can take up to 34.3 overs if they finish with a six (258).

Possible... But Pakistan batting is minnow level

 

[G0rmintAunty]

Sameer will have to score 180-190 at a brisk speed if we are to have any chance. RRR is around 7 odd RPO.

 

[BaankeJi]

Getting all out for 200 in 30 overs is much better than winning in 50th over here.

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

Just tuned in, saw highlights...must say Vaibhav made an absolute hash of getting two lives off the same ball and trying that absolute halwa shot of that halwa ball... and this opened up the top order, but would say pak pacemen are brilliant and are future stars in the waiting for sure...
This sort of experience will stand vaibhav in good stead -if you analyse his batting in the short time he's been around - its he himself getting himself out...
other than that brilliant bowling from the pak bowlers, spirited fielding efforts

and if Pak get the target inside the stipulated 33 or whatever overs, i would back pak to go all the way and lift the cup as deserving winners...

 

[Bhaijaan]

Pakistani fans

Would you rather lose trying to chase this down in 33 overs?

Or would you play on merit and try to win inside 50 overs and letting go the ambition of Semifinal

 

[Muhammad Saad]

Pak U19 maintained its record of bowling out the opposition in every single match they have played as a team before and in the World Cup , certainly it’s our best bowling attack in our history of U19 cricket.

 

[Muhammad Saad]

Would rather lose , I would happily accept 100 all out rather than winning in the 49th over.

 

[PakFan2010]

Minhas needs to score a 100 here.

 

[Human786]

Would rather lose , I would happily accept 100 all out rather than winning in the 49th over.

right spirit
This is a par score , not insurmountable by any stretch of imagination .

 

[Bhaijaan]

Minhas needs to score a 100 here.

What if he scores a 90 from 50 balls bro

 

[DeadlyVenom]

We should be realistic. Go hard and then reevaluate every 5 overs. There is no point in losing just for the sake of it. if win in 33 overs becomes out of the equation but win in 50 is still possile then go for it.

 

[m.shah]

It will be tough for Pakistan to chase 250 leave alone in 33.3 overs

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

Chase will be exciting...Pak should play like a T20 and just go for the tall timber from ball one....
if they pull this off, they will deserving WC Champs

 

[Deewana Mastana]

It will be tough for Pakistan to chase 250 leave alone in 33.3 overs

Even their seniors would struggle

 

[khyberlion]

23 year old henil Patel greeted with a 4.

 

[G0rmintAunty]

Nice shot by Hamza, need to support Minhas fully if we are to chase this.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

These kids needs to rotate the strike unlike their seniors

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Lovely pull shot second one by Hamza off the over 4 more

Shaaba bachay laga reh!

 

[G0rmintAunty]

Shahbash Hamza.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

4 more by Hamza

 

[G0rmintAunty]

3 x 4

 

[khyberlion]

This is going to be hard to chase the ball is not coming on at all.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

18-0 after 2 overs

 

[Fast bowler6929]

Lol this henil patel guy looks father of two who are playing under 19 cricket.
The oldest cricketer in this u-19 world cup.

 

[PakFan2010]

Pakistan need to aim for 100 in the first 10 overs.

 

[PakFan2010]

Pakistan are wasting the powerplay.

 

[Bhaijaan]

Hamza’s grandfather Saeen Zahoor won Indians hearts through his singing.

Today helps grandson might break their hearts brother.

 

[G0rmintAunty]

Sameer looking quite unsure of himself so far.

 

[Bhaijaan]

We should be realistic. Go hard and then reevaluate every 5 overs. There is no point in losing just for the sake of it. if win in 33 overs becomes out of the equation but win in 50 is still possile then go for it.

That’s too British thinking brother.
A desi will always follow his heart and decide from ball 1 what he wanna do.

 

[G0rmintAunty]

Sameer getting into the groove, 4

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Sameer gone lbw that's pretty much the game half gone

Pak 23-1

 

[Vikram1989]

Sameer going back to pavilion

 

[G0rmintAunty]

Game over.

 

[khyberlion]

This total is hard to chase in normal circumstances let alone in 33 odd overa

 

[Deewana Mastana]

He was late on it and the bat didn't come down straight to the ball.

 

[Hellion]

Sameer Minhas - yet another choker under pressure. Mentally weak

[Bhaijaan]

Ambrish gets the edge, wickie drops a tough one.

 

[Bhaijaan]

Minhas bhai was unlucky with that one, it stayed low brother.

 

[Devadwal]

Another Tulla catch dropped. Damn

 

[Bhaijaan]

Ambrish bowling fire.

Appeal for caught behind. I thought I heard an edge. Damn bro.

 

[khyberlion]

Sameer Minhas - yet another choker under pressure. Mentally weak

Yeah smashed India in the final of the Asia cup. The ball stayed low.

 

[Bhaijaan]

What is going on this over. 3 chances.

Ambrish bowls a phenomenal over.

 

[saimayubera]

Yeah smashed India in the final of the Asia cup. The ball stayed low.

Lol and failed where it matters - the World Cup

 

[Devadwal]

Sameer Minhas - yet another choker under pressure. Mentally weak

They will talk about that Fluke knock of Asia for next decades.

But but he scored in Aisa 2025

 

[Bhaijaan]

India vs Pakistan is so big people are glued to the Under 19 game while only few people are watching Pakistan vs Australia right now where Shadab Khan is putting on a show.

 

[chinaman00]

As I always say, Pakistan cricket suffers from a problem of psychology. Once a small pressure is applied, they start playing dot balls, put more pressure on themselves and start losing wickets fast. A perennial problem with the senior team is once again being seen with the junior team.

 

[saimayubera]

Minhas beta, Ali Raza beta - Aaj kuch nahi kar paye?

Pakistani players are one time use vs India. Use and throw.

Fakhar never played a matchwinning knock vs India post 17 CT.

Shaheen never won a match post 21 T20WC.

Same with Junaid/Jamshed post 12 series.

Some like Anwar Ali never made it past U19 stage.

Seems like Minhas joins the league of Anwar Ali and Tayyab Tahir whose one good performance vs India was not even in the senior team.

 

[Devadwal]

Bowl bouncers to these Pakistani players, they are sitting duck

 

[hamzie]

boundaries but no singles... what is this

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Usman needs to rotate the strike getting off the mark after 6 balls isn't good enough

 

[saimayubera]

Remember how after the 24 T20 WC fiasco where Pak lost to USA and couldn't chase 120 against India they started hyping up their retired team who defeated India in that England league? It fell flat on their face when India somehow sneaked into the final and beat them.

Similarly after the 25 CT fiasco where they were kicked out of their own hosted tour in 4 days and the 25 aC fiasco where they lost in three consecutive sundays as well as face off field humiliation like no handshakes, not a rivalry, not taking trophy, pycroft etc they started overhyping u19 results lol. And looks like in the biggest u19 stage of all, they are going out of the tournament courtesy India again.

Well, at least that tradition remains - they will be doing it for the rest of their lives in senior cricket and retired cricket.

 

[AamchiMumbaikar]

253 in 33 overs is not impossible. They can chase

You need to change your name to Abhishek Sharma era

 

[G0rmintAunty]

Endians now coming out of the woodworks now that Minhas is out. So predictable.

If your team was good maybe "Endians" would not be on this forum. Maybe focus on that.

 

[Bhaijaan]

Pakistan are off to a good start.

India on the backfoot already.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

My username is a joke brother.

Ofcourse but a true Indian wouldn't have a Pakistani cricketers name up there

 

[Devadwal]

Due to dropped catch

Pakistan are off to a good start.

India on the backfoot already.
