In a highly anticipated clash between India and Australia in the U19 World Cup 2024 final, all eyes were on the young talents from both teams as they battled it out for cricketing glory. The match held particular significance as it unfolded under overcast conditions, setting the stage for an intense showdown between the two cricketing powerhouses.

Raj Limbani strikes early: The dismissal of Sam Konstas

The match commenced with a moment of brilliance from Raj Limbani, the young Indian bowler, who delivered a peach of a delivery to dismiss Australian opener Sam Konstas. Opting to bat first after winning the toss, Australia was looking for a solid start to gain momentum in the crucial encounter.

However, Limbani had different plans as he unleashed a delivery of impeccable length and precision. With the third delivery of the third over, Limbani bowled a delivery that angled in sharply, leaving Konstas with little room to maneuver. Attempting an on-drive, Konstas was left bamboozled as the ball breached his defenses and crashed into the stumps, sending them cartwheeling.

Celebrations and impact

The dismissal of Konstas sparked jubilant celebrations among the Indian camp, signaling a promising start for the team in the final showdown. Limbani’s delivery showcased not only his skill but also the depth of talent within the Indian U19 squad.
