Fifteen-year-old Mumbai off-spinner Sarfaraz Khan grabbed four wickets as India under-19 boys comfortably beat their Sri Lankan counterparts by seven wickets to win the ‘Youth ODI’ series 2-0 here on Thursday.

The first match of the series didn’t yield any result due to inclement weather.

Chasing a paltry target of 138, India colts knocked off the runs with 103 balls to spare. Almost all the batsmen made contributions with young Jammu lad Shubham Khajuria top-scoring with 34, while vice-captain Sanju Vishwanadh contributed 31.

Earlier, Sarfaraz took four for 27 in 7.1 overs and was ably complemented by UP’s Kuldeep Yadav who chipped in with figures of three for 16 after skipper Vijay Zol won the toss.

Sarfaraz, the youngest member of the u-19 side got three wickets during the middle overs to break the backbone of the Lankan batting.

The scores:

Sri Lanka under-19 137 in 37.1 overs (Priyamal Perera 50, Minod Bhanuka 42, Sarfaraz Khan four for 27, Kuldeep Yadav three for 16) lost to India U-19 141 for three in 32.5 overs (Shubham Khajuria 34, Sanju Vishwanadh 31 n.o.).
