    "editor1": "<p><strong>Christchurch (New Zealand), Jan 23 (CRICKETNMORE)<\/strong> - Sri Lanka crushed Kenya by 311 runs in the Plate Quarter-Final 3 at the Under-19 World Cup here on Tuesday<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Sri Lanka U-19s claimed the joint-second biggest win in the format ever as they progress to face Zimbabwe in the Plate semi-finals.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>A brilliant batting performance from Sri Lanka saw them post 419\/4 and recorded the highest U-19 ODI score in their history.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Hasitha Boyagoda (191), Nishan Madushka (60), Kamindu Mendis (53) scored handsomely to post a mammoth total.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>In reply, Kenya were bundled out for 108. Hareen Buddila scalped four wickets while Nipun Malinga chipped in with two wickets.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>In the second match, West Indies defeated Ireland by four wickets.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Half-centuries from Yadram (53) Emmanuel Stewart (50 off 67), Nyeem Young (55 not out off 33) and a fine knock of 46 from Kristan Kallicharan helped West Indies beat Ireland.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>After posting 278\/8, thanks to a 116-run stand between Ireland captain Harry Tector and Neil Rock, a poor display in the field meant it was all in vain.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>West Indies&#39; approach to the chase was typically belligerent and the batsmen outplayed the Ireland bowlers to chase down the total.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>In another match, Australia edged past England by 31 runs.&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Australia&#39;s Lloyd Pope took 8\/35 -- the best figures in all ICC Under 19 Cricket World Cups -- to skittle out England for 96, defending a 127-run total in the process.<\/p>\r\n",
