U19 WC: Radhakrishnan's All-Round Performance Secures 3rd Spot For Australian Team
A fine all-round performance from ambidextrous spin wizard Nivethan Radhakrishnan (3/31 in 10 overs and 66 off 96 deliveries) helped Australia to third place in the U-19 ICC Men's Cricket World Cup with a two-wicket victory over Afghanistan at the Coolidge Cricket Ground here on Saturday (IST).
The 19-year-old all-rounder, who is the only ambidextrous bowler in Australia's junior programme, first limited Afghanistan to 201 all out batting first, before scoring a patient half-century in the chase. Australia were made to toil but eventually made it to safety with five balls to spare.
