Favoritism of a team is also based on what kind of opponents a team will face and the condition they will play in. I don't have much confidence in the English U-19 batsmen to fare that well against some quality spinners from sub con teams in sub con condition. Thrashing Fiji and a hapless WI side in any condition should not mean a lot TBH. BD lost to India badly on sub con conditions, that is why India are the overwhelming favorites. There are just too much things that will have to go England's way for them to become the champion. But that's just my opinion of course.
