U-19 Asia Cup: Pakistan beat India by 2 wickets in thriller

Pakistan
rode
on
a
stroke-filled
81
by
one-down
Muhammad
Shehzad
and
a
late
cameo
by
Ahmad
Khan
(29
not
out)
to
chase
down
a
target
of
238.
Ahmad
hit
Ravi
Kumar
for
a
boundary
in
the
game’s
final
delivery
to
seal
the
game
for
his
side.

Earlier
in
the
day,
the
Pakistan
U-19
bowlers,
led
by
right-arm
medium
pacer
Zeeshan
Zameer
(5/60),
wreaked
havoc
as
they
bundled
out
the
opposition
for
a
sub-par
237.

India
lost
opener
Angkrish
Raghuvanshi
(0),
Shaik
Rasheed
(6)
and
skipper
Yash
Dhull
(0)
cheaply,
with
Zameer
accounting
for
all
the
wickets
to
leave
the
batting
side
reeling
at
14/3.
Nishant
Sindhu
(8)
became
Awais
Ali’s
first
victim
as
India
slipped
to
41/4.

Harnoor
made
a
patient
59-ball
46,
striking
six
boundaries.
When
it
looked
like
he
would
score
big,
Ali
dismissed
him
in
the
19th
over
to
leave
India
at
96/5.

However,
wicket-keeper
Aaradhya
Yadav’s
83-ball
50,
in
which
he
hit
three
fours,
coupled
with
Kaushal
Tambe’s
32
and
Rajvardhan
Hangargekar’s
brisk
33
off
20
balls,
took
India
past
the
230-run
mark.

Chasing
238,
Pakistan
lost
opener
Abdul
Wahid
(0)
early
as
Hangargekar
castled
him.
Then,
Maaz
Sadaqat
(29)
and
Shehzad
(81)
rallied
the
innings
with
a
64-run
stand
for
the
second
wicket.
Shehzad,
who
hammered
four
boundaries
and
five
towering
sixes,
was
in
belligerent
mood
as
Sadaqat
played
second
fiddle.

Left-arm
medium
pacer
Raj
Bawa
(4/56)
broke
the
stand
by
removing
Sadaqat.
Bawa
struck
again
by
dismissing
Haseebullah
(3)
as
Pakistan
slipped
to
69/3.
Skipper
Qasim
Akram
(22)
also
fell
cheaply
as
Pakistan
found
themselves
in
a
spot
of
bother
at
115/4,
even
as
Shehzad
continued
to
tore
apart
the
opposition
attack.

Hangargekar
ran
out
Shehzad
in
the
37th
over
to
bring
India
back
into
the
contention
as
Pakistan
lost
half
its
side
for
159.

However,
Irfan
Khan
(32)
and
Rizwan
Mehmood
(29)
took
the
game
deep
by
adding
47
runs
for
the
sixth
wicket.
Then,
Bawa
pegged
back
Pakistan
by
removing
Mehmood
and
Irfan
Khan,
but
a
composed
Ahmad
Khan,
who
hammered
three
boundaries
and
a
six,
completed
the
job
for
his
team.
