· Sports · Sportstar, ESPNCricinfo
Left-arm spinner Tanmay Baloda claimed 6/32 to bowl Australia U-19 out for 174 on the opening day of the second multi-day Youth Test in Ahmedabad. Operating from the Narendra Modi Stadium, Baloda bowled 25 overs to dismantle the Australian batting lineup. Despite a resilient 70-run partnership between Charlie Henderson and Jacob Pietz, the visitors struggled to maintain momentum against the Indian bowling attack. India U-19 finished the day trailing by 136 runs, having lost openers Lakshya Raichandani and Sagar Virk before the close of play. The match remains ongoing as India seeks to overcome the first-innings deficit.
Why it matters
The performance highlights the depth of India's spin-bowling talent at the youth level and puts the hosts in a strong position to control the remainder of the multi-day Youth Test.
