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. 
Wicketkeeper-bat Dinesh Bana smashed James Sales for two consecutive sixes to trigger celebrations in the Indian camp — which included batting legend VVS Laxman — for what was their fifth triumph in this competition. India’s dominating run in the ICC under-19 World Cups continues. The triumph also marked the culmination of a successful run for

Dhull & Co. which saw them win eight successive games and win two titles in two continents — the Asia Cup in UAE, and then the U-19 World Cup in the West Indies.

Fired by a superb opening burst from Bawa and Ravi Kumar (4-34 in 9 overs), India seemed to be running away with the trophy, having reduced England to 61 for six in the 17th over and then 91 for seven in the 25th over, before James Rew almost single-handedly scripted England’s fightback with his gallant knock which took his team to a respectable 189 in 44. 5 overs.

Rew’s lion-hearted 95 (116b, 12x4) and his magnificent 93-run partnership in 112 balls for the eight wicket with James Sales (34 not out, 65b, 2x4) brought England back from the dead against an initially rampaging India.

At one point, with India all over them, England, who chose to bat first, looked like they wouldn’t post even 125, but Rew’s excellent knock — it is difficult to believe that this was his first half-century in the Under-19 World Cup — and his fighting partnership with Sales ensured that they had at least something to challenge India.

After an excellent first spell by Bawa which read 7-1-19-4, skipper Dhull employ his spinners, who, for a change, were disappointing. Left-arm spinner Vicky Ostwal — India’s highest wicket-taker in the tournament — went wicketless for 31 in his six overs as Rew swept and reverse swept him and the other tweakers. In the end, though, it didn’t matter.
