U19 World Cup Final, Preview: Yash Dull and Co. will aim to add to India's rich legacy when they take on England at the Sir Vivian Richards Stadium
Eight finals and four trophies in 14 editions make India the most successful team in the Under-19 World Cup history. And come Saturday, they look on course for a record-extending fifth title given the depth of talent and form but standing in the way is a driven English team, chasing its own piece of history in what promises to be an enthralling summit clash. Yash Dull and Co. will aim to add to India's rich legacy when they take on England at the Sir Vivian Richards Stadium here.
India have had a rather smooth run into the final despite a massive off the field setback when skipper Dhull and his deputy Shaik Rasheed missed two of the three league games due to COVID-19.
Dhull, who had the worst symptoms among the infected players, has lived up to his highly rated talent in the three innings he has played so far including the sublime hundred in the semifinal.
Rasheed has also shown his brilliance with the bat and is certainly the one to watch out for in the future.
Opener Angkrish Raghuvanshi and Harnoor Singh were extra cautious in their approach in the semifinal against Australia and the duo will need to change their approach for the summit clash.
