What
a match. Tense last moments - 16 Required - last wicket
An unbeaten tenth-wicket stand of 17 between Raf MacMillan and Callum Vidler took Australia past Pakistan in a topsy-turvy second semi-final in Benoni to seal a date against India in Sunday's final for the 2024 Men's Under-19 World Cup title.
Earlier Tom Straker's 6 for 24 wrecked Pakistan in the first innings, yet chasing only 180, Australia nearly threw away their advantage with the bat after a few clumsy top-order dismissals brought some parity into the contest. The 15-year-old Ali Raza (4-34) struck thrice late in the day, but the young pair of MacMillan (19*) and Vidler (3*) staved off the challenge
Raf Macmillan kept cool and it was a lucky inside edge with fine-leg up that took Australia to the finals
Pak
crest fallen - well fought but still unable to reach the Finals
