India vs England: No stopping India players from celebrating as they beat England by 100 runs to lift the U19 World Cup trophy.

India vs England LIVE Score, U19 World Cup Final: India beat England by 100 runs to win their 6th Under-19 World Cup trophy. Caleb Falconer kept England alive with a fighting century, but only to delay the inevitable. England were bowled out for 311, giving the Indian team a well-deserved win. Special props to Vaibhav Sooryavanshi for playing an unbelievable knock of 175 in the final.

India are moments away from a record-extending Under 19 World Cup title. England imploded in their chase of a record 412 as how? From 93/1, they have been reduced to 177/7, losing six wickets for 84 runs in a massive collapse. RS Ambrish, Deepesh Devendran picked two wickets each, while Khilan Patel, Kanishk Chauhan and captain Ayush Mhatre chipped in with a wicket each.

India endured a mini-collapse after Vaibhav Sooryavanshi’s 175, but Kanishk Chauhan’s 37-run cameo off 20 balls took India to a record total of 411/9, the highest ever in an Under-19 World Cup final.

Vaibhav Sooryavanshi looked set for his maiden double century, and the first-ever in an Under-19 World Cup, but missed the landmark by 25 runs. Still, his innings of 175 is arguably the greatest ever played, with the commentators drawing comparisons with Kapil Dev’s immortal knock against Zimbabwe at the 1983 World Cup. Sooryavanshi’s carnage, which included 13 sixes and 13 fours, may have ended, but with more than half the innings left, India could well eye in excess of 450 or more.

Sooryavanshi, 14, entered the record books by smashing a 55-ball century against England in the U19 World Cup final on Friday. The 14-year-old reserved his best for the last, hitting a whirlwind ton to help India bludgeon the England colts. His innings was studded with a plethora of boundaries and a range of sixes as he blew the wind out of England's sails. England’s captain Thomas Rew looked shell-shocked behind the stumps as Suryavanshi cruised to his century in true crash, bang and wallop style.

India lost captain Ayush Mhatre, but not before the skipper entertained with a knock of 53 off 51 balls. This was before he and Sooryavanshi added 142 runs for the second wicket. Before that, India were rocked early, with Aaron George, the centurion from the last game, getting out caught at point for 9 off 11 off the bowling of Alex Green.

India vs England Playing XIs:

India U19: Aaron George, Vaibhav Sooryavanshi, Ayush Mhatre (c), Vihaan Malhotra, Vedant Trivedi, Abhigyan Kundu (wk), RS Ambrish, Kanishk Chouhan, Khilan Patel, Henil Patel, Deepesh Devendran.

England U19: Ben Dawkins, Joseph Moores, Ben Mayes, Thomas Rew (c&wk), Caleb Falconer, Ralphie Albert, Farhan Ahmed, Sebastian Morgan, James Minto, Manny Lumsden, Alex Green.

India vs England U19 World Cup final Highlights:

  • Ayush Mhatre wins the toss and opts to BAT FIRST
  • No changes for India, one change for England
  • Aaron George is dismissed early
  • Sooryavanshi and Mhatre put together a strong partnership
  • Sooryavanshi reaches his century in 55 deliveries, but only after Mhatre falls on 53
  • Sooryavanshi accelerates to reach 175(80), hammering 15 sixes enroute before being dismissed
  • England pull things back with a quiet spell and regular wickets
  • Abhigyan Kundu scores a flurry of boundaries to reach 40
  • Kanishk Chouhan flexes his power late to take India to 411/9
  • England start poorly, with opener Moores falling cheaply
  • Ben Dawkins and Ben Mayes accelerate through the powerplay
  • Mayes falls on 45, India take control
  • Thomas Rew comes in an plays a fluent knock, takes the game to India, but loses his wicket against the run of play
  • A collapse is triggered as a flurry of wickets leaves ENG at 177/7
  • Caleb Falconer plays a top rearguard knock, brings up a quick fifty

We thought knowing what to chase would help our tempo. Caleb, unbelievable knock, and Dawks too to try and chase that.

Feb 06, 2026 8:11:42 PM IST

IND vs ENG U19 Final LIVE Score: Ambrish strikes once again and India are one away!

IND vs ENG U19 Final LIVE Score: Ambrish continues to have an impact! It's the shorter one which works again against the tailender, who swings hard but never gets enough.

Easy to get around to, and India just one piece of cricket away from wrapping it up!

Feb 06, 2026 8:00:49 PM IST

IND vs ENG U19 Final LIVE Score: The stand is broken! Minto dismissed, India 2 away

IND vs ENG U19 Final LIVE Score: There's the wicket India wanted! Dug in hard and short, Minto tries to swing hard but only slices it to point inside the ring. 92-run partnership snapped, and India one step closer.

Feb 06, 2026 7:47:45 PM IST

IND vs ENG U19 Final LIVE Score: 255/7 after 33

IND vs ENG U19 Final LIVE Score: Ticking along now. Holding pattern stuff. Falconer slowly working over but Minto's rate down the other end will need to step up if they want this chase to remain alive.

Feb 06, 2026 7:34:31 PM IST

Feb 06, 2026 7:23:41 PM IST

IND vs ENG U19 Final LIVE Score: Falconer continues to battle – 4, 4, 4

IND vs ENG U19 Final LIVE Score: Good to see some battle – there is so much ground to cover but that doesn't mean Falconer won't try to cover it. Deepesh Devendran riled him up a couple of overs ago, and he has responded by taking him on. 4, 4, 4, all along the floor. Excellent batting, he is onto 39* off 19.

Feb 06, 2026 7:09:41 PM IST

IND vs ENG U19 Final LIVE Score: Two in an over again, and this time it's Deepesh!

IND vs ENG U19 Final LIVE Score: It's all going very very wrong! Deepesh first gets an edge behind for Kundu to collect for six down, and then two balls later has Seb Morgan driving it uppishly right back to him – sharp reactions to hold on, and this match has stopped being a contest!

Feb 06, 2026 7:05:59 PM IST

IND vs ENG U19 Final LIVE Score: Two wickets in an over! Ayush Mhatre with the golden arm

IND vs ENG U19 Final LIVE Score: He has a special knack of taking wickets, and captain Ayush Mhatre brings himself on and removes half-centurion Dawkins! Similar to Rew, driven well and hard, but straight to cover.

Two balls later, a lot of yes-no-yes between the two new batters Albert and Falconer – a great piece of fielding from Khilan enforces a run-out, and the pressure beginning to tell! Albert gone on a duck.

176/5 now. Looking like curtains.

Feb 06, 2026 6:57:08 PM IST

IND vs ENG U19 Final LIVE Score: Dawkins reaches fifty, ENG continue to attack

IND vs ENG U19 Final LIVE Score: No slowing down for England despite the wickets, which is heartening to see. Continue to go after the bowling, they won't die wondering. After Falconer gets going with a tall maximum, Dawkins also deposits a six into the off-side to reach his half-century.

Feb 06, 2026 6:54:07 PM IST

IND vs ENG U19 Final LIVE Score: GONE!!! Rew picks out cover and it's advantage India

IND vs ENG U19 Final LIVE Score: Can you believe it! Rew was looking sensational, he was hitting some absolutely incredible shots. He has hit this drive so well after dancing down the pitch, and it's absolutely humming – but unfortunately for Rew, straight to the man inside the ring! Two feet either side and that's four – but India don't care, they continue to chip away and dismiss England's main men!

142/3 after 18.

Feb 06, 2026 6:44:02 PM IST

IND vs ENG U19 Final LIVE Score: 124/2 after 16, Rew continues attack

IND vs ENG U19 Final LIVE Score: Skipper Thomas Rew has come in with the intention of continuing England's attack, and has done just that with some very positive cricket. Tough balance to find for the batters at the minute with so many runs yet to get.

Feb 06, 2026 6:34:38 PM IST

IND vs ENG U19 Final LIVE Score: SECOND WICKET DOWN! In-form Mayes falls trying a reverse sweep

IND vs ENG U19 Final LIVE Score: Got him! Last laugh for Khilan Patel. Gets hit hard down the ground for six, but the next ball, tossed up a little more, and a big top edge flies to the fielder at the fence, and the fielders are ecstatic!

Mayes was the key man here – he takes his top run-scorer mantle back with 45, but India keep chopping.

Feb 06, 2026 6:22:59 PM IST

IND vs ENG U19 Final LIVE Score: 14 off the first over of spin

IND vs ENG U19 Final LIVE Score: Ben Mayes is some player. A little bit of Harry Brook about him, and he is striking it as sweet as you like. A six and two fours off that over – India will quietly be growing a little concerned. He's finding the boundary at will.

Feb 06, 2026 6:18:36 PM IST

IND vs ENG U19 Final LIVE Score: 64/1 at end of powerplay

IND vs ENG U19 Final LIVE Score: Solid powerplay for England but it's the acceleration that will give them the boost, after a watchful start.

India will be a little disappointed at leaking a few runs, but they won't mind this in the big picture.

Feb 06, 2026 6:14:18 PM IST

IND vs ENG U19 Final LIVE Score: England beginning to attack, Mayes goes after Ambrish

IND vs ENG U19 Final LIVE Score: Similar to what happened in the first innings – towards the end of the powerplay, it becomes paradise to bat on. Easy for Mayes to swing through the line and grab a couple of fours.

51/1 after 9. Needs to keep going.

IND vs ENG U19 Final LIVE Score: There's the big early wicket! Ambrish slants it across Moores the lefty, who tries to drive it square but can only manage a thick inside edge which rockets into his own stumps!

Just the start that India needed.

IND vs ENG U19 Final LIVE Score: Finally England get going

Three boundaries in that over and also a chance created. Moores is starting to find rhythm and showing that he could be dangerous for India, if he stays too long in the crease. Ayush Mhatre would be looking to pick up the wicket of Moores as soon as possible.

IND vs ENG U19 Final LIVE Score: Big six, and India finish on 411/9!

IND vs ENG U19 Final LIVE Score: Sensational last over from Kanishk Chouhan just to swing that meter a little bit more towards India after England had fought back! Denies Deepesh a single, and makes it count with a monster pull shot for six – takes India to 411/9, finishes on 37* off 20.

All about Sooryavanshi, this innings, but excellent late performance from Kanishk for the final touches.

IND vs ENG U19 Final LIVE Score: Good fielding on the last ball of that over to run out Henil! Goes miles in the air so India try to come back for a second, but it's an accurate flat throw and good wicketkeeping to beat Henil by an inch or two.

Last over coming up.

IND vs ENG U19 Final LIVE Score: 385/8, 2 overs to play

IND vs ENG U19 Final LIVE Score: England doing well to ensure this isn't something completely unchaseable.

Here is an issue for them though – two overs to play, but timer has run out for the innings, which means only four fielders on the fence for the last 12 balls. Can Kanishk take advantage?

Feb 06, 2026 4:46:42 PM IST

IND vs ENG U19 Final LIVE Score: Another one bites the dust – Khilan holes out

IND vs ENG U19 Final LIVE Score: 367/6 with 5 overs to play

IND vs ENG U19 Final LIVE Score: Kundu departs after 40, but provides impetus; 359/6

IND vs ENG U19 Final LIVE Score: Kundu's flurry of boundaries comes to an end. He had started slowly but got going – this is a big wicket for England to potentially keep India short of 400.

Kanishk Chouhan next in. Capable of launching them himself.

Feb 06, 2026 4:28:11 PM IST

IND vs ENG U19 Final LIVE Score: Kundu begins to attack with pomp! 4, 6, 4, 4

IND vs ENG U19 Final LIVE Score: Excellent from Kundu to step it up! Begins to use the width of his crease to manufacture some excellent cricket shots. Gets inside the line to pummel one through leg before doing the same and helping it along for six over fine leg. Two balls later, makes room and pumps it through the off-side. Excellent batting.

Feb 06, 2026 4:24:36 PM IST

IND vs ENG U19 Final LIVE Score: Not the most fluent going – 336/5 after 43

IND vs ENG U19 Final LIVE Score: England doing very well to keep the clamps on and not leak runs at this stage. 400 slowly looking quite far away with India going at less than 6rpo in the last few overs.

Feb 06, 2026 4:15:55 PM IST

IND vs ENG U19 Final LIVE Score: 319/5 after 40 overs

IND vs ENG U19 Final LIVE Score: 10 overs to play. Certainly been a slow-down – 36/2 in the last 10 overs, after 116 runs in the 10 overs prior. India need to have a target in mind here now and gun for that.

IND vs ENG U19 Final LIVE Score: Trivedi departs too! Minto removes both set batters, 308/5

IND vs ENG U19 Final LIVE Score: Small hiccup for India here as both their set middle order batters depart in quick succession! Minto strikes again, and it's another leading edge, this time deep into the leg-side.

Over to the lower order to make the most of these last 14 overs. Power in Kundu, Ambrish, and Kaushik to come.

Feb 06, 2026 3:53:34 PM IST

IND vs ENG U19 Final LIVE Score: Malhotra falls! Cramped up, easy catch

IND vs ENG U19 Final LIVE Score: England strike to break the partnership! This pair had worked well but Malhotra with an awkward swing trying to force the issue. Thick leading edge as he does that, and settles into the mid-off fielder's hands.

302/4 now, 16 overs to play.

Feb 06, 2026 3:45:04 PM IST

IND vs ENG U19 Final LIVE Score: Malhotra begins to attack – pulls out the switch hit; 297/3 (33)

IND vs ENG U19 Final LIVE Score: Some more aggressive cricket already. Field up on the off-side against the off-spinner, and the southpaw is ready to sharply switch around and clear those fielders along the ring. Good cricket.

297/3 after 33 overs.

Feb 06, 2026 3:35:32 PM IST

IND vs ENG U19 Final LIVE Score: 283/3 after 30 overs

IND vs ENG U19 Final LIVE Score: At the 30 over mark, India still cruising, this partnership slowly finding its feet. They will be happy to take things easy for another 5 overs or so, but the batting depth means they have the license to go after the bowling soon enough.
