Everything that Raj Bawa touched turned into gold on Saturday at the Sir Vivian Richards Stadium in Antigua.
Powered by a superb all-round show by the Chandigarh allrounder, who took five for 31 — the best-ever figures ever in U-19 World Cup finals — and then chipped in with 35 (54b, 2x4, 1x6) in a match-winning 67-run stand for the fifth wicket in 88 balls with Nishant Sindhu (50 not out, 54b, 5x4, 1x6), India overcame a grand fightback by England to win a thrilling final by four wickets and clinch the 2022 Under-19 World Cup.
Chasing 190, India slipped to 97 for four in the 29th over, having lost the wickets of Angkrish Raghuvanshi (0), Harnoor Singh (21), Shaik Rasheed (50, 84b, 6x4), and skipper Yash Dhull (17), before Sindhu, who hit a brilliant half-century under pressure, and Bawa joined forces to take India closer to the target. Bawa and Kaushal Tambe’s wickets gave England some hope, but Sindhu kept his nerves to guide India home in the 48th over.
