India Colts win the U-19 World Cup

India Colts won a hard fought World Cup in Malaysia by defeating South Africa by 16 runs in the final. Indians have displayed brilliance in all the fields and were the only side to be undefeated in the entire tournament. Though the batting, their mainstay in all the league games collapsed in the finals, their bowling came to the fore with Ajitesh Argal once again proving his mettle. The slower bowlers supported the seamers and reduced SA to 103/8 in the rain affected match there by winning their second WC title after 8 years. These people will be welcomed by many dignitaries and a ceremony will be held at the Chinnaswamy stadium in Bangalore.
