India U19 defeated Australia U19 by 51 runs in the second Youth ODI in Brisbane
Jayden Draper scored a fast 107, but Australia’s middle order could not sustain the chase
Vaibhav Suryavanshi hit 70 and broke the Youth ODI record for career sixes during the match
Australia’s U19 team fought hard, with Jayden Draper smashing a brilliant century off 65 balls during their chase of 301 at Brisbane’s Ian Healy Oval. Despite Draper’s valiant effort, scoring 107, the team lost six wickets and fell short by 51 runs in a thrilling contest vs India U19 on Wednesday.
The chase looked shaky early on when Australia lost three quick wickets including stand-in captain Yash Deshmukh, sliding from 63-1 to 64-4. Draper then joined forces with Alex Lee Young, and their 42-run partnership gave Australia hope. However, quick wickets soon followed, crushing the momentum and ending the Australian challenge.
India posted a competitive total of 300 runs, thanks to solid performances from multiple batters. Abhigyan Kundu led India’s scoring with 71 runs before being run out. Vaibhav Suryavanshi and Vihaan Malhotra both scored 70, providing a strong foundation for the innings. Although all of India’s top five, except captain Ayush Mhatre, got decent starts, none managed a century.
Suryavanshi made history by breaking the record for the most career sixes in Youth ODIs, surpassing Unmukt Chand’s total of 38 sixes in only 10 innings.
