England U19 vs IND Under-19, 1st Quarter-Final at Kuala Lumpur, Feb 24 2008 - Ball by Ball Commentary
IND Under-19 won by 7 wickets (with 65 balls remaining)
Taruvar Kohli stays on till the end with an unbeaten 63 as India win by seven wickets. England are out of the tournament. This was a win set up by India's bowlers. A target of 147 for a good batting order was never going to be a terribly big ask. Handshakes all around as the teams leave the field.
Taruvar gets the Man-of-the-Match award for his innings.
