India vs Ireland Highlights, U19 World Cup 2022: IND qualify for Super League quarterfinals with 174-run win over IRE

Another one bites the dust! Ostwal traps Philippus le Roux plumb in front to pile further misery on the Irish camp. Two wickets in two overs.

Ireland 66/6 after 21.2 overs

Sangwan strikes after being hit for a six. Cox edges it to wicketkeeper Dinesh Bana, who pouches it after a bit of juggle. Chasing 308 and being 66/5 after 21 overs, Ireland are in a precarious situation at the moment.

Pulled away for a six to backward square leg! Short from Sangwan and he dispatches it for six runs. A few more please?

20 overs gone and Ireland are 60/4. Still a long way to go! The required run-rate is now over eight, leaving them with a mountain to climb.

The hero for India in the last match, Vicky Ostwal comes into the attack.

Ireland 57/4 after 19 overs

11 from Raj Bawa's over. A good one for Ireland, who have been put under pressure by early blows.

Ireland 52/4 after 18 overs

Short from Bawa and Cox pulls one away for a boundary! It didn't come off the middle of the bat but enough for Cox to get a much-needed boundary under his belt. The Irish followed it up with another four down the ground.

Ireland 51/4 after 17.5 overs

Garv Sangwan continues... India have ran through the Ireland top-order and forced them to clasp on a defensive mindset. Two more points will help India head to the Super League quarterfinals.

Ireland need 270 more runs from 204 deliveries. With four wickets gone, it's looking a bit tricky for the Irish here.

Philippus le Roux has joined Cox in the middle. One more wicket and it could perhaps be a one-sided affair. In the last five overs, Ireland have scored just 11 runs while losing a wicket. Drinks are on the field now. 

Ireland 38/4 after 16 overs

The required run-rate had climed to almost eight and a wicket was coming. Garv Sangwan plucks the wicket of opposition skipper Tim Tector, leaving IRE tottering at 36/4

Cox had notched up an unbeaten century against Uganda but he's stuck on 3 off 23 deliveries in this game. This is making it easier for the Indian bowlers.

Ireland 32-3 after 14 overs

Sindhu gives away just two from the 13th over. Boundaries seem to have dried up. Ireland need to take that calucated risk and go over mid-on or mid-off to boost the run-flow. 

Ireland 31-3 after 13 overs

Raj Bawa continues from the other end and concedes just two. Along with Vicky Ostwal, Bawa was also the top performer with the ball against SA, taking four wickets and giving away 47 runs in Georgetown.

Two singles from the 11th over bowled by Sindhu and Ireland are 27/3. India won't mind singles at this point. The required run-rate is now over seven.

Raj Bawa introduced into the attack and he gives away eight runs. End of the first powerplay and Ireland are way behind! India were 68/0 after the end of first 10 overs. Ireland are reeling at 25/3.

Ireland 25/3 after 10 overs

Nishant Sindhu comes into the attack and starts off with a maiden. Joshua Cox had scored 111* against Uganda in his previous game. He will be looking to put up a similar performance with the bat. Ireland need to change gears now.

Ireland 17/3 after 9 overs

Three early blows to Ireland and the Indian camp is chirpy on the field. One more wicket and it could perhaps turn out to be a lop-sided contest. Ireland would aim to throw a few punches and get back into the game.

Ireland 17/3 after 8 overs

Hangargekar continued to mount pressure on the opposition batters and it eventually led to a run-out! Bawa with the direct hit and the Indians were already celebrating. Vincent walks back after scoring just eight. 

Ireland 17/3 after 7 overs

A much-needed boundary for Ireland! Vincent pulls a Ravi Kumar short delivery through square leg for a boundary. 

Ireland 16/2 after 6 overs

Another one! Hangargekar traps Jack Dickson to finish with a wicket maiden! What a start from the Indian bowling unit.

Ireland 10/2 after 5 overs

Ravi Kumar strikes early as IRE lose first wicket! Doherty looked to put it away over deep mid-wicket put picked out Vicky Ostwal instead.

Ireland 10/1 after 4 overs

Hangargekar continues with his raw pace and gives away just four. A disciplined start from the Indian duo of Hangargekar and Ravi Kumar.

Ireland 6/0 after 3 overs

Six members out of the 17-member squad including regular skipper Yash Dhull were ruled out of selection ahead of the fixture. The players will remain in isolation but will be under the constant supervision of the medical team, says BCCI.
