The Indian cricketing community erupted in joy as the ‘Boys In Blue’ staged a remarkable comeback against South Africa, securing their place in the ICC Under 19 World Cup 2024 final. With a gripping two-wicket triumph over South Africa in the semi-final clash, India reached their fifth consecutive men’s U-19 World Cup final.

Facing a daunting situation at 32-4, the Indian U19s displayed remarkable resilience, with skipper Uday Saharan and Sachin Dhas orchestrating a stunning recovery through their masterful innings. Former India captain Sourav Ganguly and BCCI secretary Jay Shah were quick to express their admiration for the young team’s performance, taking to social media to shower praises.

“What a win from being 32 for 4 …fantastic performance from the young boys .. some good talent in this South African side too,” remarked Ganguly, emphasizing the team’s remarkable achievement.
