Farhan Yousaf: We were happy that we lost the toss, our plan was to bat first. No I was not disappointed with the final score, and very happy with the collective performance. We had lost the first match against India, but our management had a good talk with us and we could provide the win in the Finals.
Ayush Mhatre: We were clear to bowl first, there were some inconsistencies in the line of the bowling. It was a simple plan to play the 50 overs. The boys really played well and tournament was good for us and some players stood up.
Sameer Minhas is the Player-of-the-Match and also Player-of-the-Series: It was a good innings, I had in mind to score a big score, I want to play my natural game, we wanted to bat first looking at the track. It is very memorable for me. Pakistan Under-19s win by 191 runs. Congrats to the Pakistan team, celebrations underway, they are pumped up with the win. Sameer Minhas being carried around on the shoulder. Commiserations to the Indian team, who were unbeaten till the Finals, had a bad outing today. India were in the game only for the first few overs, but after that, it was all Pakistan, the bowlers picking up wickets at regular intervals. Ali Raza picking up 4 wickets.
