U19 Asia Cup: Unbeaten half-centuries from Vihaan Malhotra and Aaron George helped India beat Sri Lanka by eight wickets in a rain-hit U19 Men’s Asia Cup semi-final and set up a high-voltage title clash against Pakistan, to be held on Sunday.

Rain forced the first semi-final at the ICC Academy Ground to be reduced to 20 overs per side, and India’s disciplined bowling attack once again delivered, restricting Sri Lanka to 138/8, with Kanishk Chouhan and Henil Patel claiming two wickets each.

Sri Lanka were reduced to 28/3 in the sixth over, before skipper Vimath Dinsara (32) and Chamika Heenatigala (42) staged a brief recovery through a 45-run stand. Sethmika Seneviratne’s 22-ball 30 provided late impetus, as Sri Lanka breached the 135-run mark.
