England Faces Highest Chase in U19 World Cup History
6 Feb
Summary
- India set a formidable 412-run target for England in the U19 World Cup final.
- Vaibhav Suryavanshi scored a blistering 175 off 80 balls, building India's innings.
- This match could see the highest successful chase in Youth ODI history.

In the ICC Under-19 World Cup 2026 final, India has posted a daunting 412-run target for England at the Harare Cricket Ground. This sets the stage for a potential record-breaking chase, as it would be the highest target ever successfully overhauled in Youth One Day Internationals.
Vaibhav Suryavanshi was instrumental in India's formidable score, blazing an explosive 175 runs from only 80 deliveries. His aggressive innings provided a strong foundation, with contributions from Ayush Mhatre and other lower-middle-order batsmen helping India surpass the 400-run mark.
A successful defense of this total would grant India its sixth U19 World Cup title, further solidifying its dominance in the tournament. The current record for the highest target chased in Youth ODIs stands at 316, set by Sri Lanka against England in 2016.
