The headline of the day was 14-year-old sensation Vaibhav Suryavanshi, who played one of the greatest innings in U19 history.

Captain Ayush Mhatre anchored the middle with a steady 53 off 51 balls.
Kanishk Chouhan provided a late flourish, smashing 37 off 20 balls* to push the total past 400.

Chasing 412 was always a mountain to climb, but England didn't go down without a fight:
Caleb Falconer played a lone hand, scoring a blistering 115 off 67 balls.
Ben Dawkins added a solid 66, but a middle-order collapse (losing 6 wickets for just 84 runs) proved fatal for the English side.
4. India’s Bowling Excellence
The Indian bowlers maintained pressure throughout the innings:
RS Ambrish was the pick of the bowlers with figures of 3/56.
Kanishk Chouhan and Deepesh Devendran took two wickets each to wrap up the tail.
