India U19 bundled out Sri Lanka U19 for 324 runs in the second innings on day four to win the 1st Youth Test by an innings and 21 runs on Friday July 20,2018

Sri Lanka U19, trailing by 345 runs in the second innings, threatened to draw the match riding on KNM Fernando’s century (104) and MNK Fernando’s 78 off 134 balls but Mohit Jangra (5/72) ran through the hosts’ top-order to hand India U19 a 1-0 lead in the two-match Youth Test series. 

Ayush Badoni top-scored for the visitors smashing a scintillating 185* studded with 19 fours and four sixes along with Atharwa Taide (113), N. Wadhera (82) and Anuj Rawat (63) to power India to a mammoth 589 runs in the first Innings.

P Sooriyabandara had top-scored with 69 for the hosts after Sri Lanka U19 skipper Nipur Perera had opted to bat first after winning the toss.
