Watch: Pakistan Stars Stunned After Failing To Set Up Under-19 World Cup Final vs India

The second semi-final of Under-19 World Cup between Pakistan and Australia was one to watch. It was last-over thriller that saw Australia edge past their opponents by a bare margin of one wicket. As Pakistan failed to enter the final, the players of the side left were left heartbroken as soon as Australia got the winning runs. Notably, India had already advanced to the final with two-wicket win over South Africa in the first semi-final. The winner of the Australia vs Pakistan match was thus set to take on India in the summit clash.

Talking about the game, Tom Straker's six-wicket haul and Harry Dixon's fifty inspired Australia to a tense victory over brave Pakistan on Thursday.

Pakistan made a below par 179, built around two half-centuries by Arafat Minhas (52) and Azan Awais (52) as they struggled against pacer Straker (6/24).

Despite having their own struggles against spirited Pakistan bowlers, the Aussies managed to reach 181 for 9 in 49.1 overs to seal the final berth with Dixon (50, 75b, 5x4) and Oliver Peake (49, 75b, 3x4) leading their chase.

While India will be playing their ninth title match, the Aussies are appearing in their sixth final.

India have won a record five titles while Australia have bagged three titles, and the last time the Yellow Brigade lifted the trophy was in 2010 with a win over Pakistan. That edition was held in New Zealand.

However, Australia's win was anything but smooth as a bunch of determined Pakistan bowlers made them stretch for every single run.

Australian openers Dixon and Sam Konstas (14) added 33 runs but they lost four wickets while adding 26 runs in 6.2 overs that pushed them into a tight corner.

Not many teams relish the
