It’s a proud moment for all the Indians as India Under-19 cricket team clinched the ICC World Cup title after defeating Australia by 8 wickets in the finals.
The Boys in Blue are coached by former Indian skipper Rahul Dravid who is currently being hailed for the team’s deserving win.
As soon as the Prithvi Shaw led Indian team gave their country another reason to celebrate, the cricket community not just in India, but across the globe lauded the young guns achievement.
Here are some of the best tweets:
Congratulations India, exceptional U19 team, great coach and mentor in Rahul Dravid. Future stars in the making.
