Opener Sahil Parakh made an aggressive unbeaten hundred as India Under-19 brushed aside Australia by nine wickets to take an unassailable 2-0 lead in the three-match youth ODIs.

Parakh’s hundred (109 not out off 75 balls, 14x4, 5x6) helped India achieve the target in just 22 overs. Parakh, a 19-year from Mumbai, stitched a fine partnership of 153 with Abhigyan Kundu (53 not out off 50 balls, 9x4).

Earlier, medium-pacer Samarth Nagaraj (2/34), leg-spinner Mohammed Enaan (2/30) and off-spinner Kiran Chormale (2/29) helped India restrict the Aussies to 176.

Brief scores: Australia U19: 176 all out in 49.3 overs (Sheriff 39; Chormale 2/29, Enaan 2/30); India U19: 177/1 in 22 overs (Parakh 109*, Kundu 53*).

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
