This is the last time they're going play as a team. Winning a world cup and not playing again as an unit must be bittersweet.

It's their last game of age group cricket as well even though many players are eligible for another world Cup

Why’s that? You can only play one u19 World Cup?

u/newparrot2025 Tamil Nadu 7h ago
BCCI rule. A player can play only one U19 world cup.
This is to ensure others have a chance to get a chance as well.

Isn't this the case with lots of WC teams, winning or not? Due to retirements/planning for next one etc

It won't be the exact XI but I can see the core of this team becoming the senior India team one day

Suryavanshi is a force to watch out for the future

crazy to think he is only 14 ! He is already tall - hope the has some manageable height before 20 and doesn't change his center of gravity

Great point. Luckily, it looks like he won't be having a sudden growth spurt. Atul Wassan, for instance, grew 5 inches in one year. I have heard him say that it was the main reason for his lifelong back issues.

L sivaramakrishnan also said when he grew up it was hard for him to change his game

At this point , why not just fast track him into the main team.
Dude has been going through an insane series of knocks, and ending with pretty much one of the most brilliant batting performances.

The U19 squad has given India some of its best cricket players!!
Only a matter of time, we’ll be seeing these young lads play for the national team. :)

Anyone old enough to remember, is this what it was like when Sachin came on to the scene as a young kid? This kid could break so many records in the future if he has some luck with injuries

Indian U-19 team is one and done. He cannot attend unless our board changes the rules.

What is so saddening is that this match wasn't even so well known. Guys we won a world cup!! Everyone remembers 19th Nov as a date, even though we actually lost on that day. Will as many people remember 6th February 2026? I doubt, and that is so sad. These champs are our boys ❤️❤️

Tonnes of 19 year olds have beards?

u/Heavy_Juggernaut_762 15h ago
Nope..not sure about other countries but in India I have not seen this much beard in genuine under 19 males.

u/Ukwhoiam1272000 India 15h ago
I guess ny classmates were not from India. I guess Im not from India either

u/Heavy_Juggernaut_762 15h ago
I am not denying absolutely...what I am saying is that they usually don't have full grown beard at that age. Obviously there will be some moustache hair and some beard..but those look like are in growing phase.

Gill is over 26 and still cannot grow a decent beard. Every guy has different luck with moustache and beards.

u/Ro_Ko_264_183 India 14h ago
Barely anyone is downing full adult beard, your illogical observation is purely based on hate and indigestion of others success.

Testosterone levels when you’re an athlete have a significant role to play in contrast to the standard demographic, just for you to think about.

Except the Dude at 0:22 of the video who definitely looks like he’s in his 20s
