Preview:
England Under-19s will be up against West Indies Under-19s in the 3rd Youth ODI on Wednesday. In a low-scoring thriller, England U-19 won the second youth ODI by one wicket to go 2-0 up in the 6-match series. An unbeaten partnership of 19 runs between Fateh Singh and Nathan Barnwell for the last wicket helped the hosts to seal a win.
On the other hand, the West Indies Under-19 team made an excellent comeback in the 2nd half of the match in the second Youth ODI, and the game slipped away from them in the final moments. Isai Thorne has picked up 6 wickets from 2 matches is the player to watch out for from their team. They must win the remaining 4 matches in order to secure the series.
