2018, Under-19 World Cup: India vs Bangladesh 5 talking points

The flurry of Indian wickets

After the Indian total had reached a respectable 231-6 in 45 overs, courtesy the gutsy knocks by Gill and Sharma, it was expected that the lower middle order would contribute as many runs as possible in the pressure match between the two neighbouring countries.

However, a combination of perfect death bowling by the Bangladeshi seamers and the inability of the Indian tail to stick around meant that India lost their last five wickets for 50 runs in just 5.5 overs. Qazi Onik, who picked up three wickets in the innings and Saif Hassan, with two wickets were the chief wreckers and the Indian bowlers hardly had any answers for their tight deliveries.

It was also the first time in the tournament that the India team had lost all ten wickets in their innings.
