ICC U19 Men: Ryan Hicks came good for Australia with an unbeaten half-century as they defeated Sri Lanka in their final group match of the ICC U19 Men's Cricket World Cup 2024 here on Sunday.

Hicks led Australia’s charge in a tricky run-chase against Sri Lanka’s spinners. The middle-order batter made an unbeaten 77 to guide Australia to a target of 209 with ease.

Australia take on England and West Indies at the same venue, the Kimberley Oval, on January 31 and February 2 respectively in the Super Six stage.
