India last won the ICC Under-19 World Cup in 2018. In New Zealand, Prithvi Shaw and Shubman Gill laid the foundation to their bourgeoning careers. On Saturday, Yash Dhull will lead a set of Indian upstarts, many of whom will be aiming to impress the scouts who help kickstart careers, courtesy the IPL.
Coming on the back of the third South Africa vs India Test match, the result of the Cape Town Test can serve as a great booster, especially to the South African colts. Aiden Markram and Kagiso Rabada were the stars of a memorable triumph eight years ago and the current crop will be confident of following in their footsteps.
India's big boys once against failed to win a Test series in South Africa while Dean Elgar's unfancied team came from the dead to fashion an incredible 2-1 series win. As both nations look towards the future, this ICC Under-19 World Cup can reveal the next generation of players who can rise and shine.
India have only once failed to make it past the group stage at an ICC Under 19 Men라이브 바카라 Cricket World Cup – at the opening edition in 1988 – and enter among the favourites to go all the way.
Lifting the 2021 Asia Cup served as perfect preparation, with spinners Vicky Ostwal and Kaushal Tambe shining as India defeated Sri Lanka by nine wickets in the final on New Year라이브 바카라 Eve.
The spin twins therefore have headed to the Caribbean full of confidence, as do the Asia Cup라이브 바카라 leading run scorers Harnoor Singh and Shaik Rasheed, and India라이브 바카라 strength with bat and ball will again make them formidable opponents.
