2018 under-19 World Cup: Five reasons why India beat Bangladesh in the quarter-final

Top-notch fielding

After doing the job with the ball, the Indian pacers contributed to the team's success in the field as well. When the game was wide open, Bangladesh batsman Towhid Hridoy hit the ball towards the point region and took off for a single before he was sent back by his partner.

Shivam Mavi, who was guarding the backward region, attacked the ball, picked it up with his right hand, took aim and hit the bullseye with the batsman well short at the striker's end. In the next over, Shivam's fellow pacer from Rajasthan, Kamlesh Nagarkoti, showed his own fielding skills as he effected yet another run out to dismiss Aminul Islam and reduce Bangladesh to 85/5. Batsman Afif Hossain nudged the ball to the square leg region and took off for a single. But, Nagarkoti had other plans as he dived to his right, picked up the ball, threw it to the keeper when he was in the air and Harvik Desai collected it cleanly to catch Aminul just short of his crease.

Apart from the run outs, the ground fielding was also brilliant as the Indian fielders backed their bowlers with some fantastic fielding throughout the match.
