ICC Under-19 World Cup 2018: India vs Papua New Guinea, 5 talking points

Four ducks scripted by the PNG batsmen

The young side of PNG looked completely at sea against the pace and spin being unleashed by the Indian spinners and seamers and this fact can be gauged by running down through their scorecard. Four of the batsman dismissed went back to the pavilion for no score and with the high score of the innings just 15, the inevitable was evident.

Heagi Toua, the number three batsman was bowled out by a quick inswinging Yorker and once Ovia Sam was dismissed in the eighteenth over, the lower order could hardly put up any resistance. Leke Morea, James Tau and Semo Kamea were all unable to get any runs against their name and their dismissals only quickened India’s fate in the game.
