India captured their sixth ICC Under-19 World Cup crown with a commanding 100-run victory over England in the final at Harare Sports Club on Friday. Fourteen-year-old sensation Vaibhav Suryavanshi delivered a breathtaking performance, smashing a tournament-record 175 off just 80 balls—the highest individual score ever in an U19 World Cup final.
Captain Ayush Mhatre contributed a solid 53, helping India post a monumental 411/9 in 50 overs, the highest total in U19 World Cup knockout history. England's chase fell short despite Caleb Falconer's brilliant 115, as they were bowled out for 311 in 40.2 overs. R.S. Ambrish led India's bowling attack with 3/56.
The unbeaten campaign extends India's dominance in youth cricket, with Mhatre's team winning all their matches en route to glory. This triumph marks India's position as the most successful nation in tournament history.
