India Under-19 win first one-dayer February 08, 2005 21:37 IST Last Updated: February 08, 2005 22:29 IST Extending their good work in the Test series to the shorter version of the game, the Indian under-19 cricket team humbled their England counterparts by 46 runs in the first one-day match in Agartala on Tuesday. Replying to the hosts' formidable score of 299 for 9, the England under-19 side was bundled out for 253 in 46.4 overs at the Maharaja Bir Bikram stadium. M Tehlan (51, 64 balls, three fours) top scored for the Indians, who opted to bat after their new captain Manoj Tiwari won the toss in the morning. The English colts had a poor start, losing two quick wickets before middle order batsmen M Ali (57, 72 balls, 7x4, 2x6), T Smith (56) and W Gifford (33, 55 b, 4x4) tried to rescue the side. In the end, the visitors fell well short of the Indian total. India's Gaurav Dhiman, who scored 43 and claimed two wickets, was declared man of the match. The second one-dayer will be played at the same ground on Wednesday.
