India defeated England by four wickets at the Sir Vivian Richards Stadium in Antigua on Saturday to win the U19 World Cup for a record fifth time.

India made 195-6 with 14 balls to spare after dismissing England, playing their first final in the tournament in 24 years, for 189.

England were 91-7 at one stage before a sparkling 95 from James Yew gave them a fighting chance.

Fast bowler Raj Bawa claimed 5-31 while Ravi Kumar finished with 4-34.

India were never really in trouble during their run chase, with Shaik Rasheed (50) and Nishant Sindhu (50*) both making half-centuries.
