The boys in blue have reached the U19 World Cup final on eight occasions in the past, of which four appearances came in the last four years.



Bangladesh outdone India in U19 World Cup final 2021 and the time has arrived to undo the loss incurred and fill up a few pages of history, as India takes on England in the U19 World Cup final 2022 in Antigua.

The Indian skipper Yash Dhull has been in a sublime touch since his return from Covid. He scored a magical hundred against Australia in the semi-final, partnered by Shaik Rasheed, who scored 94 and rescued India from an early debacle.



Meanwhile, Tom Prest, the English skipper, has also been in great touch. He has led his team from the front with 292 runs at an alarming average of 72. His splendid performance is complemented by left-arm pacer Joshua Boyden who has scalped 13 wickets in the tournament.

BGT: The Indian Cricket Team, under the leadership of stand-in skipper Jasprit Bumrah kicked off the 2024 Border Gavaskar Trophy on the best possible note as they went on to secure a comfortable victory versus the Australians in the opening fixture of the series.



After being bundled out for a mere score of 150 runs in the 1st inning on the first day of the Perth Test-Match, the Men in Blue brought their A game forward and turned things around as they initiated an all-out on the Aussies for 104 runs and managed to take a decent first-inning lead of 46 runs.



Captain Jasprit Bumrah wrecked havoc with the ball registering yet another five-wicket-haul and ended the first inning with figures of 5-30 next to his name. He received a tremendous amount of support from the duo of debutant Harshit Rana (3-48) and Mohammed Siraj (2-20) as the home side didn't have any answer versus the excellent bowling performance of the Indians.



In the 2nd inning of the Perth Test-Match, the Jasprit Bumrah-led team put up a masterclass with the bat, with the opening duo of KL Rahul (77 runs in 176 deliveries) and Yashasvi Jaiswal (161 runs in 297 balls) stitching a mammoth partnership of 201 runs for the opening wicket, the highest ever opening wicket stand by an Indian batting pair in the history of the Border-Gavaskar-Trophy in Australia.



22-year-old Yashasvi Jaiswal's 161 run knock helped him the become just the second batter ever in the history of the sport to convert his first 4 Test Cricket tons into 150s. This knock of the Southpaw played a crucial role in helping his side win the Perth Test-Match



Legendary batsman Virat Kohli also managed to bring up his highly-awaited 30th century in the longest format of the game, going past the tally of Legendary Australian batsman Don Bradman. In order to score some quick runs, Kohli got involved in a really good partnership of 77 runs in just 52 deliveries with debutant Nitish Kumar Reddy (38" Runs) before the Men in Blue declared their second inning for a mammoth score of 487-6. The Indians set a huge target of 534 runs for the Aussies, their highest ever in the history of the longest format of the game versus their fierce-rivals.



A defeat for the Kangaroos was guaranteed as their batters didn't look comfortable at all out their in the middle versus the Indian bowling unit and eventually they got all-out for a score of 238 runs, suffering a defeat by a margin of 295 runs.
