England U19 vs India U19, Final, ICC Under 19 World Cup 2026 - Player Highlights

Manny Lumsden to Vaibhav Sooryavanshi, out Caught by Thomas Rew!! The most dominating knock in the history of U19 World Cup comes to an end. Most of the England players go across to shake hands as Sooryavanshi walks off. What a knock! He does not even look disappointed on missing out on a double century. He walks off to a standing ovation and acknowledges it with a bat raise. Lumsden goes round the wicket, angles it in and takes pace off, Sooryavanshi sits down to play the lap but the ball does not come on, hits his glove and lobs behind for Thomas Rew to take a dolly. England needed that because at the rate Sooryavanshi was going, even 500 seemed possible. This breakthrough will give them some time to breathe, regroup and pull things back.
