Dubai, Dec. 22 -- Pakistan beat India by 191 runs in the Under-19 Asia Cup final in Dubai on Sunday, lifting the trophy for the second time.
Opener Sameer Minhas struck 172 off 113 balls, including 17 fours and nine sixes, as Pakistan posted 347 for eight. India were bowled out for 156 in 26.2 overs.
Pace bowlers Ali Reza (4/42), Mohammad Sayyam (2/38) and Abdul Subhan (2/29) dismantled India's top order with consistent short-pitched bowling. India captain Ayush Mhatre said wayward bowling cost his team the match.
"It was a simple plan to play the 50 overs. The boys played well and the tournament was good for us," he said.
There was no formal greetings between the players of the two teams. P15
