A contest which everyone was waiting for took place at ♉Senwes Park in Potchefstroom on Tuesday, where India got the better of Pakistan to qualify for the finals in the ongoing U19 World Cup.
After bowling out their arch-rivals at 172, India chased down the low score comprehensively. The ‘boys in blue’ were on top right from ball one and never offered Pakistan a sniff.
T𝕴he duo of Yashasvi Jaiswal and Divyansh Saxena displayed ꦜgreat maturity as they went onto the record the fourth successive win against Pakistan in U-19 World Cups.
Jaiswal was the chief architecture and smashed a scintillating cent💖ury. His partner-in-crime, Divyansh, too, played hi𝓰s part and supported Jaiswal.
India completely out✨played the opposition and won the contest by 10-wickets. Both Jaiswal and Divyansh remained unbeaten on 105 and 59,ꦺ respectively.
Jaiswal finishes off in style!
🀅He reaches hi𓆉s hundred with a six and India qualify for the final.
Their fans are over the moon. | |
