India Beats England by 100 runs in the U19 World Cup 2026 Final today. The match happened at Harare Sports Club in Zimbabwe’s capital. India’s youngsters just created history with their sixth title overall.
Captain Ayush Mhatre won the toss and chose to bat first. The pitch looked absolutely flat and perfect for big scores. What followed was the most destructive batting display in U19 World Cup 2026 history.
India posted a massive 411 for 9 in their 50 overs. That’s the highest total ever in a U19 World Cup Final. Nobody expected such carnage on this stage honestly speaking.
Vaibhav Sooryavanshi’s Record-Breaking Knock
Vaibhav Sooryavanshi absolutely destroyed England’s bowling attack today. He smashed 175 runs off just 80 balls brutally. His century came off only 55 balls making it the second-fastest ever.
The teenager showed zero fear against any bowler who faced him. Boundaries flew to every corner of Harare Sports Club throughout his innings. His celebration after reaching the hundred went viral on social media instantly.
Henil Patel opened the bowling for India when England chased. RS Ambrish bowled maidens alongside him initially keeping things tight. The U19 World Cup 2026 Final needed India’s bowlers to finish the job.
Supporting Acts Shine Through
Abhigyan Kundu contributed 40 runs off 31 balls in the middle order. Kanishk Chouhan on 37* off just 20 balls. Lower-order batters pushed India past the 400-run mark crucially in the Final.
England bowlers James Minto and Sebastian Morgan tried their best honestly. Minto picked up 3 wickets during the middle and late overs. But stopping India after Sooryavanshi’s onslaught became nearly impossible for them.
England’s Brave Chase Falls Short
Chasing 412 runs looked ridiculous from the very start here. Ben Dawkins and Joseph Moores opened batting for England bravely. They added early boundaries after surviving some tight opening overs.
Caleb Falconer fought like a warrior scoring 115 off 67 balls. James Minto partnered with him in a 92-run stand during the chase. Late boundaries kept coming but wickets kept falling regularly too.
England got bowled out for 311 in 40.2 overs eventually. India Beats England comfortably claiming their Record Sixth Title triumphantly. The 2026 edition belongs to India’s Under-19 heroes completely now.
