**Sydney, Australia:** England’s Under-19 team faces a mountain to climb after falling behind by a staggering 528 runs against Pakistan on day two of their Youth World Cup match. Pakistan amassed a mammoth first innings total of 506, with Salman Agha’s half-century propelling them past the 500-run mark.
England’s response has been far from impressive, struggling to cope with the heat and Pakistan’s relentless bowling attack. Debutant Brydon Carse managed to pick up two wickets but England were still 528 runs behind by the close of play.
The first two days of the tournament have seen contrasting fortunes for the Australian Under-19s. While they trail by 370 runs against an unnamed opponent, the Tasmanian team opted to field first. The Queensland team also chose to field first in their match, setting up a potential battle for dominance in the upcoming days.
