Australia won the ICC Under-19 World Cup. In the last match, Kangaroo team performed brilliantly and defeated India by a huge margin of 79 runs. The Indian team, which performed brilliantly throughout the tournament, was unable to maintain its excellent form and lost to Australia. The Indian team’s defeat has left millions of Indian fans heartbroken. The Indian team made a lot of mistakes in their fight for the title. In such a situation, today we will tell you about the five mistakes that kept India one step away from the title.
Indian team captain Uday Saharan has been in amazing form at the U19 World Cup so far. Throughout the tournament, he constantly attacked the Indian team with his bat. However, he failed to do this in the last game and was eliminated after scoring only 8 runs.
The Indian team’s bowling in the final didn’t seem to have the same rhythm as in the tournament. However, Indian team fast bowler Raj Limbani dealt Australia the first blow with 16 runs. But after that, the Australian batsmen continued to maintain partnerships and took the team to over 250.
In the title fight, Indian team’s star batsman Musheer Khan received two big blessings. However, even after these donations, Musheer was seen batting in a panic and was bowled for 22 runs. Musheer’s wicket was the main reason for India’s defeat.
The Indian team’s opening batsman Adarsh ​​​​Singh played an innings of 47 runs off 77 balls. He batted very slowly in the beginning and that affected the team. The pressure on India increased and the Indian team disintegrated before this pressure.
The Indian team’s middle order proved to be a big flop in the title race. With the exception of Mushir Khan (22 runs), no batsman from number 3 to number 7 could even reach the 10-run mark in the Indian innings. The Indian team suffered a huge defeat and remained just one step away from the title.
