The West Indies took a series-winning 4-2 lead in their Men’s Under-19 contest against England following a comfortable 4-wicket win over the visitors in the 6th Youth One-Day International at Grenada’s National Cricket Stadium on Saturday. Despite a poor day with the bat, all-rounder Jonathan van Lange (4-17) starred with the ball to help dismiss England for an underpar total, before captain Joshua Dorne delivered another terrific display of batting to see the Caribbean side to victory.
England opener Isaac Mohammed had carved 45 from 57 balls. Still, an ordinary display from the middle-order left them desperate for a respectable total. Skipper Farhan Ahmed stepped up with a 76-ball top-score of 54, as wicketkeeper Joe Moores chipped in with 42 to help drag the visitors to 221 in 47.5 overs.
There were two wickets apiece for Matthew Miller (2-15) and Vitel Lawes (2-38).
