IND U19 vs AUS U19 Live Score: Vaibhav Suryavanshi departs after brilliant knock of 67 in second Youth ODI
The second Youth ODI between India U19 and Australia U19 is underway at the Ian Healy Oval in Brisbane. After winning the toss, Australia opted to bowl first, putting India in to bat. India’s batting got off to a strong start, thanks to Vaibhav Suryavanshi’s stellar half-century, but the youngster departed after a well-made 67, leaving the visitors in a competitive position.
🌟 Suryavanshi shines again
Suryavanshi, who has been in sublime touch, continued his rich form by attacking the Australian bowlers early on. His innings was filled with crisp boundaries and smart running between the wickets, showing maturity beyond his years. Just as he looked set for a bigger score, he fell after anchoring India’s top order.
This knock adds to his growing reputation as one of India’s most dependable performers in youth cricket.

🏏 Match context so far
India, coming into this match with a 1–0 lead in the three-match series, are looking to seal the series after their emphatic win in the opening ODI, where they chased down 226 runs in just 30.3 overs. Abhigyan Kundu’s unbeaten 87 had powered that chase, and the team will again bank on their middle order to consolidate after Suryavanshi’s dismissal.
For Australia, the bowlers have shown better discipline today after being outplayed in the first game. Their focus will be on breaking India’s partnerships in the middle overs and restricting them to a chasable total.
