India vs England Live Score, U19 World Cup 2026 Final: India dominate England to claim record sixth Under-19 World Cup titleChasing 412 in a World Cup final was always going to be a monumental task, and despite a spirited fight, England eventually fell short as India clinched their sixth Under-19 World Cup title, setting a new record.After winning the toss, India captain Ayush Mhatre elected to bat, backing his team to make the most of a flat, inviting surface. And India did far more than just capitalise—they smashed expectations, thanks to an extraordinary innings from Vaibhav Sooryavanshi. The left-hander was unstoppable, carving through the England bowling with fearless, clean hitting, finishing on 175 off just 80 balls. His innings set the tone early and gave India a platform to post a mammoth total. Support from the rest of the batting line-up ensured India crossed the 400-run mark, leaving England with a seemingly impossible chase.England’s reply started positively, with Ben Dawkins, Ben Mayes, and skipper Thomas Rew keeping up with the required run rate in the first 20 overs. But the match turned with Rew’s dismissal, which triggered a dramatic collapse—four wickets for just three runs—and left England reeling. Caleb Falconer and James Minto fought back, sharing a resilient 92-run partnership. Falconer bore the brunt of the scoring, producing a valiant 115 off 67 balls, but with too much ground to cover, England couldn’t claw their way back.In the end, India’s batting firepower and clinical bowling proved too much for England, sealing a historic win and adding another glittering chapter to India’s Under-19 legacy.Final Score:India: 411/5 (50 overs)England: 307/9 (40.2 overs)
