Icc U 19 World Cup News

Every bowler envisions a spectacular start on the grandest stage. India’s young pacer Raj Limbani produced a similar masterclass to remove Australia’s opener Sam Konstas with a beautiful inswing, providing India with their initial breakthrough in the U-19 World Cup finals at Benoni.

The International Cricket Council has designated the hosts for all U-19 World Cups for the next five years, with Sri Lanka set to play host for the upcoming men's edition in 2024. The organization further revealed the qualification scenarios for the senior World Cup events as well until 2027.

Recalling his days under the tutelage of Rahul Dravid, Prithvi Shaw has admitted that the Indian legend knew exactly what and how to get the best out of the team during U-19 tours. He also stated that never once during his U-19 days did Dravid ask him to curb his natural instinct and game.

Ravi Bishnoi, who had a terrific U-19 World Cup, has stated that his Kings XI Punjab stint has allowed him the opportunity to learn a lot from Anil Kumble - someone he idolised growing up. Bishnoi has further added that he was itching to bowl after being forced to isolate during the last few months.
