LIVE | IND vs PAK Live Cricket Score U19 World Cup 2026 Updates: Captain Ayush Mhatre Stars With The Ball As India Beat Pakistan By 58 Runs | PAK U19 194 All-Out

Bizarre tactics from Pakistan, and they pay the price. Despite knowing they needed to chase the target inside 33.3 overs to reach the semis, Pakistan never showed urgency — and in the end, failed to win the match outright as well. This after a flying start that saw them at 88/1 and later 151/2.

As the pitch began to grip and turn, Ayush Mhatre read it perfectly, bringing himself on and striking with his very first ball on the way to a three-wicket haul. Supported brilliantly by Khilan Patel, Vihaan Malhotra and Kanishk Chouhan, the quartet combined to rip out eight wickets.

Vihaan Malhotra strikes! The sweep proves costly against turn and bounce. Tossed up on a good length outside off from Deepesh Devendran, it grips and turns, Ali Hassan Baloch goes for the sweep and gets a top-edge that lobs to short fine leg for a simple catch. Pakistan slip to six down. PAK U19 172/6 in 37 overs vs IND U19 (252 all-out)

Plumb or inside edge? Usman Khan certainly thought he’d nicked it. Replays suggest a clear deviation — fired in full on middle, Usman gets low for the slog-sweep and there’s an under-edge that deflects onto the back thigh as he kneels. Without DRS, the umpire had no way out — and it looks like a wrong call. Pakistan U19 168/5 in 35.4 overs vs India U19

Wicket first ball Captain Ayush Mhatre strikes straight away. From around the wicket, he tosses it up on a length around off, the off-break spins away and lures Ahmed Hussain into a poke. A thick outside edge and Abhigyan Kundu makes no mistake behind the stumps. Pakistan lose their fourth. Ahmed Hussain is gone for 2 (6). Pakistan U19 159/4 in 31.1 overs vs India U19

FOUR! It was darted down leg and Usman Khan tickles it fine. Deepesh runs back from short fine leg but he can’t prevent the boundary. Pakistan U19 159/3 in 31 overs

Out! Farhan Yousaf (38) is gone, RS Ambrish strikes! A slow, full delivery outside off from Yousaf, Yousaf goes for the loft in search of a six but fails to get the required height and power, and Khilan Patel takes the simple catch. PAK U19 152/3 in 29.5 overs vs IND U19 (252-all out) in Bulawayo

This is brilliant batting from Usman Khan, his teammates in the dressing room stand and applaud, good knock for the Pakistani batter. He soaked in the pressure and negated Indian bowlers in some style. Pakistan U19 147/2 in 28.5 overs vs India U19 (252-all out)

SIX! Flighted outside off from Kanishk Chouhan, Farhan Yousaf accepts the invitation and gets down on one leg and swings his willow hard to slog it over long-on. This was much-needed as the pressure was building up. PAK U19 128/2 in 24.5 overs vs IND U19 in Bulawayo

Second boundary of the over! A short, harmless delivery outside off from Deepesh Devendran is smashed by Farhan Yousaf, who pulls it ferociously through the gap between mid-on and midwicket, hopping and swiveling to get maximum power. Pakistan U19 112/2 in 22 overs vs India U19 in Bulawayo

The 65-run stand is broken! Hamza Zahoor goes for a sweep, the ball clips his arm, and the bails are rattled. Kanishk Chouhan had appealed for LBW, but it’s the stumps that do the talking. The same sweep shot that brought Zahoor plenty of runs ends up being his undoing. Pakistan U19 88/2 in 17 overs vs India U19 (252-all out) in Bulawayo

Two boundaries in the over, Pakistan getting a move on here. Good start for the boys in green! FOUR! Overpitched delivery from RS Ambrish, Usman Khan firmly drives between the bowler and the non-striker. No one’s stopping that. Back-to-back boundaries to end the over. PAK U19 44/1 in 8 overs vs IND U19 (252 all-out) in Bulawayo

Edged and dropped! It’s full and driven hard, Hamza Zahoor pushes forward and nicks it thickly to the keeper’s right. Abhigyan Kundu flies across with a one-handed attempt but can’t cling on — the ball spills out of the glove and trickles away to third man. PAK U19 28/1 in 5 overs vs IND (252-all out) in Bulawayo 

Pakistan will be the happier side after keeping India to 252 on a tricky surface. There’s uneven bounce, a bit of stickiness, and long boundaries in play. India flew off the blocks but collapsed from 47/0 to 47/3 in just four balls.

Vedant Trivedi and Vihaan Malhotra steadied things before Vihaan fell. Abhigyan Kundu then joined Vedant and survived a no-ball scare, but couldn’t make it count. Useful hands from RS Ambrish, Kanishk Chouhan and Khilan Patel, followed by a late push, lifted India to a fighting total.

For Pakistan, Abdul Subhan starred with a three-wicket haul. And word from the stats team—pending confirmation—Pakistan will need to chase this down in 33.3 overs to book a place in the final.

Run out! Deepesh Devendran (1) gone and that’s the innings. India are bowled out for 252. Back of a length outside off, Devendran slashes and misses, Henil Patel calls him through, and Hamza Zahoor calmly lobs it to Abdul Subhan to complete a simple run-out. India U19 252-all out against Pakistan U19 in Bulawayo

Two strikes in the final over and both batters are gone. Kanishk Chouhan (35) and Khilan Patel (21) head back to the hut as Pakistan finish strongly.

Abdul Subhan rolls his fingers over a slower off-cutter on middle, Khilan Patel rocks back for the pull, misses completely, and the stumps are shattered. Chouhan follows soon after—Sameer Minhas with a superb catch at long-on. It’s a half-volley outside off, Chouhan tries to loft across the line, but Sameer reads it early, sprints to his right and dives to take a clean two-handed grab. India U19 251/9 in 49.3 overs vs Pakistan U19

Two sixes in one over, courtesy Kanishk Chouhan! These are very crucial runs for India as they look to finish strong against Pakistan. Fine shot. Kanishk Chouhan comes down the track and takes it on a length from outside off, he flat-bats it powerfully straight down the ground for a maximum. IND U19 247/7 in 48.3 overs vs PAK U19 in Bulawayo

FOUR! This was much-needed and Kanishk Chouhan is doing the job for India as he smashed Mohammed Sayyam for three back-to-back boundaries to give the boys in blue a little push. A low full-toss outside off, Chouhan gets forward and lofts it nicely over mid-off. IND U19 227/7 in 47 overs vs PAK U19 in Bulawayo

Two quiet overs for India, just 13 runs from it. Kanishk Chouhan and Khilan Patel are the crease for the boys in blue, they need to hit some biggies if India want to touch that 250-run mark. Can India make the most of these last few overs? Let’s find out.

A much-needed boundary for India, Ambrish gets in to the act! India are now looking to break the shackles. Both Vedant Trivedi and RS Ambrish look to build as India eye a fighting total against arch-rivals, a solid partnership is the need of the hour.

Gone! Abhigyan Kundu departs. Tossed up full outside off from Ali Hassan, Kundu charges down to loft but the bat twists in his hands and he slices it straight to Abdul Subhan at long-off. A simple catch, and he fails to cash in on the earlier let-off. IND U19 148/5 in 32.5 overs vs PAK U19 in Bulawayo

Mohammad Sayyam thought he had him, but it’s heartbreak for Pakistan. Sayyam bowls a short-of-length delivery outside off, Kundu throws his hands at it and edges behind. The celebrations are short-lived though—front-foot no-ball under scrutiny. Checked and confirmed: no-ball! Sarfaraz Ahmed drops his head as Pakistan’s joy turns to frustration. Sayyam has overstepped, and Kundu survives on 7 off 14. Huge reprieve. IND U19 138/4 in 29.5 overs vs PAK U19 in Bulawayo

Drinks break! India raced to 46 in the first 7 on a true batting surface before Pakistan hit back hard, snapping up the top three in just four balls. The momentum has stalled since. Vihaan Malhotra and Vedaant Trivedi are in rebuild mode, playing it safe through a couple of quiet overs for the men in blue. India 73/3 in 14 overs vs Pakistan in Bulawayo

Ayush Mhatre Gone For Duck! Mohammad Sayyam is the man for Pakistan! Sayyam strikes twice in the over, removing Vaibhav earlier and now Ayush Mhatre, as Pakistan go on top. It’s a length ball angling away outside the fifth-sixth stump channel. Mhatre stays back and pokes tentatively, edging it to the keeper who makes no mistake. The umpires check for a possible no-ball, but Sayyam has part of his boot behind the line. Mhatre departs for a duck, and Pakistan are buzzing. India 47/2 in 8 overs vs Pakistan in Bulawayo

India need a big partnership here. They did get a good start but lost wickets quickly and have been pushed on the back foot. A lot depends on Vihaan who has come into this match on the back of a brilliant hundred.

Wickets continue to tumble. Subhan strikes on the very first ball. A brilliant delivery from the pacer. Length delivery, on the off side, the ball moves in a bit and hits the woodwork behind Aaron George. He is gone for 16

What an EVENTFUL OVER! Seyam gets his second of the over. Ayush Mhatre edges that back to the wicket-keeper. The umpire check for a no ball but that’s a legal delivery and India are two down now

Vaibhav Suryavanshi SURVIVES TWICE in one ball before finally getting caught behind. He skied one on the previous delivery, didn’t time the shot well but the catch was dropped in the circle. The fielder threw it at the striker’s end but the wicket-keeper fails to collect the ball. On the very next ball, Vaibhav tries to pull a short one but feathers it and the wicket-keeper takes the catch. India lose their first

You can’t miss your length against Vaibhav Suryavanshi. Ali Raza bowls that full, outside off and Suryavanshi who is standing a bit deep in the crease takes the aerial route over covers and gets a boundary

Both Vaibhav Suryavanshi and Ayush Mhtare are looking to attack whenever they get a chance. Good intent from both the batters. Pakistan on the other side look for wickets early

Vaibhav Suryavanshi hits that through the covers. You can’t bowl full toss to him. This has been smashed away with authority. 

It’s going to be an important fixture for both Vaibhav and Ayush. While Suryavanshi has scored runs in this tournament but a big one from him hasn’t come yet. Mhtare on the other side hasn’t been among a lot of runs. 

Pakistan break from their huddle as the Indian openers stride out to the middle. Pakistan have chosen to bowl, while India were keen to bat. It’s a bright, sunny day in Bulawayo. Two slips are in place as Ali Raza comes over the wicket to start the proceedings.

Aaron George and Vaibhav Sooryavanshi are at the crease, with George taking strike. Ali Raza will open the attack.

India captain, Ayush Mhatre: We were looking to bat first. Boys are doing really well. We are confident enough. The boys are playing really well. It’s a sunny day. First three matches, it was raining, there was some difficulties. Last two matches, good weather and it’s really helped us. One change. Udhav Mohan misses out, Deepesh Devendran comes in.

Farhan Yousaf, Pakistan captain, wins toss as Pakistan opt to field against India at the Queens Sports Club, Bulawayo.

The two captains, Ayush Mhatre and Farhan Yousaf, make their way to the middle as it’s toss time in Bulawayo!

In their last meeting, India lost to Pakistan by 191 runs in the U19 Asia Cup final in Dubai on December 21 last year. Earlier in the tournament, the boys in blue had won the group match of the same tournament against the arch-rival by 90 runs on December 14.

This ‘no-handshake’ stance has turned every over into a pressure cooker, signaling that for the Boys in Blue, this is strictly business—and the business is revenge.

When these two cricketing giants collide, the air is thick with more than just competition. After two consecutive matches where the Indian camp refused to even acknowledge their rivals with a handshake, the message is loud and clear: There will be no friendship in Bulawayo.

The wounds of Dubai are still raw, and the Ayush Mhatre-led Boys in Blue are out to prove that the hierarchy of world cricket hasn’t shifted.

Five-time champions India are on a mission to settle a massive score. Today’s Super Six showdown isn’t just a match; it’s a quest for vengeance after the humiliating 191-run drubbing handed to them by Pakistan in the Asia Cup final just weeks ago.

The wait is over! Welcome to the most explosive fixture in world cricket, it’s India vs Pakistan. Super Sunday. Bulawayo. A place in the history books is on the line as these two giants collide in a humdinger of an ICC U-19 World Cup contest. Tensions are high, the stakes are higher—don’t blink, or you’ll miss it!
