Team Overview
India U19
Led by Ayush Mhatre, who impressed for Chennai Super Kings in IPL 2025 with a 94-run knock off 48 balls, India U19 come into the series as favourites despite a recent loss in the U19 Asia Cup final to Bangladesh. The team boasts 14-year-old sensation Vaibhav Suryavanshi, the youngest IPL centurion, who scored 17 off 13 balls in a warm-up match against Young Lions Invitational XI. Suryavanshi’s explosive batting (strike rate ~150 in U19 ODIs) and a record-breaking 35-ball T20 century make him a key player to watch.
The bowling attack is spearheaded by medium-pacer Yudhajit Guha, who has taken wickets in all five of his U19 ODI appearances with an economy of 4.15, capable of swinging the ball both ways. India’s squad also includes vice-captain and wicketkeeper Abhigyan Kundu, alongside talents like Vihaan Malhotra and Mohamed Enaan. India’s historical dominance over England U19 (38 wins in 50 matches) adds confidence, though they’ve lost three of their last five games in England.

Under the leadership of wicketkeeper Thomas Rew, England U19 are looking to capitalize on home advantage. Fresh off a mixed tour of South Africa, where they lost a three-match ODI series but won earlier series against Sri Lanka (2-1) and Ireland (2-0), England rely on opener Ben Mayes, who averages 39 with 156 runs in five U19 ODIs, including two fifties. At home, Mayes averages an impressive 96, making him a cornerstone of the batting lineup.
James Minto, a 17-year-old left-arm pacer, leads the bowling with seven wickets in his last three U19 games, including a 4/37 haul at home. Middlesex’s James Isbell, who scored a century against Scotland U19, and Rocky Flintoff add depth to the batting. The flat Hove pitch is expected to favor their aggressive approach, but their record against India (11 wins in 50 matches) suggests a tough challenge.
