India U-19 and Malaysia U-19 went head to head at Kinrara Academy Oval, at Kuala Lumpur on 23 June’ 2012 as the home team was undone by a dominant Men in Blue who registered an 8- wicket win in the U-19 Asia-Cup, group A fixture.
The hosts were put into bat by the visiting team captain, Unmukt Chand, whose decision paid off after his strike bowler http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Sandeep-Sharma-c88505 cleaned up the16- year-old opening batsman, Syafiq Ali on the very first ball of the match.
Malaysian batsmen could not construct a substantial partnership thereafter, and lost wickets at regular intervals. In the 19th over, half of the team was back in the dressing room, having posted a disappointing 57 on the board. http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Markasakkam-Sandeep-c74795 and Rush Kalaria nailed
the top order by sharing three wickets between them, while http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Delhi-c780 Daredevils spinner, Vikas Mishra dismantled the middle-lower order, restricting the hosts to an embarrassing 126-run total.
Mishra was the pick of the bowlers as he claimed 4 wickets, conceding just 18 runs at a miserly economy-rate of 2.11, followed by Daredevils’ team mate, Unmukt Chand, along with opening-fast bowler Kalaria, both of whom picked up two wickets each.
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/India-c750 started their chase in a patient manner, scoring at approximately 5 runs per over in the first hour of play. Anwar Rahman claimed the first scalp, trapping Manan Vohra LBW at a personal score of 26 runs. Indians were hardly troubled thereafter, despite
losing their second opener and skipper, Chand, who became Anwar’s second victim.
With the score resting at 86 for the loss of 2 wickets, the middle order was up to the task and got the required runs without losing a wicket, chasing down the target in 31 overs. Baba Aparajith and Vijay Zol compiled the second highest partnership of the
match, 44, remaining unbeaten on 38 and 20 respectively.
The Player of the Match award went to Mishra for his four-wicket haul.
The hosts will be looking to bounce back when they take on http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Pakistan-c755.
