India’s U19 squad will look to wrap up the limited-overs series in Australia when they face the hosts in the second Youth ODI on Wednesday, September 24. The Ayush Mhatre-led side enters the contest with momentum firmly in their favor.

In the opening match, pacer Kishan Kumar gave India the perfect start, removing opener Alex Turner with the very first ball. Despite a gritty 77* from John James lower down the order, Australia’s batting effort lacked firepower and they were restricted to 225 in their 50 overs.

The chase never looked challenging for the young Indians. Fourteen-year-old prodigy Vaibhav Suryavanshi entertained with a dazzling 38, featuring seven boundaries and a stylish six. Later, wicketkeeper Abhigyan Kundu’s unbeaten 87 off 74 balls, supported by Vedant Sharma’s solid 61*, steered India home with ease. The visitors cruised to victory in Brisbane, sealing the win with nearly 20 overs left.
