India U-19 v West Indies U-19

India into quarters after win over West Indies

Feb 22, 2008

India reached the quarter-finals of the under-19 cricket World Cup by beating the West Indies by 50 runs on Friday, helped by a 74-ball century by captain Virat Kohli.
The result eliminated West Indies from the tournament, making it the major casualty of the group stage.
Kohli, batting at No. 4, hit a fluent 100, including 10 fours and four sixes, as India piled up 265-5 after being put into bat by the West Indies. Opener Taruwar Kohli made 50 and No. 3 Tanmay Srivastava hit 51. West Indies was bowled out for 215 in the 48th over to be eliminated from the tournament. It needed a win to force a three-way tie in Group B, which would have then required the top two teams to be decided by net run rate.
Siddarth Kaul picked up 3-37, while Ravindra Jadeja and Ajitesh Argal took two wickets each to demolish the West Indies batting in which Darren Bravo top-scored with 43.
India will meet England in Sunday's quarter-final while the other Group B qualifier South Africa will clash with Bangladesh, also on Sunday.
