IND U-19 vs ENG U-19, 2nd Youth ODI: Thomas Rew's ton trumps Vaibhav Suryavanshi's start as England beat India to square series 1-1
After a comfortable six-wicket win in the first Youth ODI against the England U-19 side, the Indian Colts have been handed a one-wicket loss by the home team in the last over thriller second Youth ODI at the County Ground in Northampton on Monday. Riding on captain Thomas Rew's brilliant century, England scraped through with a narrow win to level the five-match series 1-1. Another brisk start from young Indian prodigy Vaibhav Suryavanshi and multiple 40s from the middle order helped India post 290 in 49 overs after being put in to bat. England then chased down the target with three balls to spare, reaching 291 for 9 in 49.3 overs. RS Ambrish, the medium pacer for India, took four wickets for 80 runs from his 10 overs to raise hopes of an Indian victory but the last English pair of Sebastian Morgan (20 not out) and Alex French (3 not out) survived the final two overs to give their side a win in a see-saw battle. The home side made a shaky start in their run chase with opener BJ Dawkins (7) back in the dressing room in the second over at team score of just seven. They slumped to 46 for 2 and then to 47 for 3 in the 12th over with Ambrish taking the wickets of Ben Mayes (27) and Isaac Mohammed (11) in quick succession. A magnificent 131 from 89 balls for Thomas Rew against India U19s today 👏 Enjoy all six sixes, some ridiculous shots in here 😍#WeAreSomerset — Somerset Cricket (@SomersetCCC) June 30, 2025 But Rew (131 off 89 balls) and Rocky Flintoff (39) resurrected the England innings with a 123-run stand for the fourth wicket before the latter got out off Kanishk Chouhan in the 33rd over. England then needed 20 runs from three overs and 12 from two but they had just two wickets in hand. Alex Green (12) fell in the first ball of the penultimate over, the third victim for Ambrish, and England needed seven runs from the final over with the last pair at the crease. England eventually crossed the line with Morgan hitting a four off the third ball of the final over bowled by Yudhajit Guha. Suryavanshi was among the runs for the second time as he had also made 48 in India's comprehensive win in the first match. For England, AM French was the pick of the bowlers with figures of 4/71 from his 10 overs while Jack Home (3/63) and Alex Green (3/50) were among the wickets. The home side conceded 32 extras, including 26 wides. India U-19: 290 all out in 49 overs (Vaibhav Suryavanshi 45, Vihaan Malhotra 49, Rahul Kumar 47, Kanishk Chouhan 45; AM French 4/71, Jack Home 3/63, Alex Green 3/50). England U-19: 291 for 9 in 49.3 overs (Thomas Rew 131, Rocky Flintoff 39; RS Ambrish 4/80). (With PTI inputs)

Matthew Waite starred with the ball as Worcestershire claimed their first win of the Rothesay County Championship season by beating Essex by 225 runs on day three at New Road. Having been bowled out for 134 for a lead of 335, Worcestershire dismissed the visitors for 110, with seamer Waite taking a career-best six for 19, adding to his three wickets in Essex's first innings. Hampshire won for the first time since the opening round of Division One fixtures and ended Warwickshire's unbeaten start as they triumphed by 89 runs at Edgbaston. Special, special player! 🤩 — Worcestershire CCC (@WorcsCCC) May 18, 2025 James Fuller took five scalps as Warwickshire, chasing 310, were dismissed for 220. Captain Lewis Gregory hit an unbeaten 89 to see Somerset to a five-wicket win over Sussex at Taunton. Somerset had been set a target of 150 after Sussex, following on, had made 335 featuring 82 not out from their skipper John Simpson. The hosts slipped to 30 for three, Ollie Robinson striking twice, but makeshift opener Gregory stood firm to guide Somerset to their second successive win. Champions Surrey looked to be nearing an innings victory over Yorkshire at the Oval as three late wickets left the visitors on 185 for six, still trailing by 72 runs. A proper captain's knock from Lewis Gregory this evening 👏 🔝 Opens the batting🏏 89 not out🔴 118 balls⌚️ 161 minutes#SOMvSUS#WeAreSomerset — Somerset Cricket (@SomersetCCC) May 18, 2025 Yorkshire had been 167 for three but the dismissal of James Wharton for 67 was quickly followed by George Hill and Jordan Buckingham for ducks, leaving visiting captain Jonny Bairstow (64 not out) with only the tail for comfort on the final day. Ollie Robinson (141), Graham Clark (121) and Emilio Gay (104) each posted centuries as Durham made a club-record 664 in their match against leaders Nottinghamshire at Chester-le-Street. Their lead stood at 190 at stumps, with the away side on 67 for one in their second innings. In Division Two, leaders Leicestershire beat Middlesex by seven wickets for their first red-ball win at Lord's in 45 years. Three wickets apiece from Ben Green and Logan van Beek helped the Foxes bowl out their opponents for 143 before Leicestershire eased their way to their target of 102.

The Welsh side got the 66 runs they needed for the loss of two wickets after Northamptonshire's second-innings 304, in which Saif Zaib (71), Lewis McManus (66) Luke Procter (56) made half-centuries. James Anderson took another wicket for Lancashire in their match against Derbyshire at Old Trafford as he continued his first competitive outing since his international retirement last year. The England great ousted Zak Chappell for his third scalp of an innings in which Derbyshire made 314, with Brooke Guest hitting 77. Lancashire then reached 141 for six at close of play for a 285-run lead.
