Quick Read
Vice-captain Vihaan Malhotra’s (61 not out off 45 balls) exhilarating stroke-play was well complemented by Aaron George’s (58 not out off 49 balls) composure as India U-19 set up a U-19 Asia Cup summit date with arch-rivals Pakistan after crushing Sri Lanka colts by eight wickets in a rain-curtailed semi-final here on Friday.
After rain reduced the match to 20-over per side, the Indian bowling unit restricted Sri Lanka to 138-8 in 20 overs.
