Jadeja, Boult, and Southee were a part of the match

 

Time for a repeat?

I remember watching this game, India were cruising at one stage before a collapse took place. Finally it was the ungainly Saurabh Tiwari, who took India home. 

Most elegant batsman in both sides was Manish Pandey lol

I too recall it. saurubh tiwari is not genuine int'l class, but he always struck me as someone with good temperament.

 

another thing I remember is seeing kohli's AR performance (2 wkts and 43) and thinking he could become a good batting AR or batsman who could bowl medium pace like ganguly. how wrong I was in retrospect

Is this  going the "Oh  the 1992 similarities....so we r winning this" way !!!!!!

No, just an interesting piece of trivia.

 

Surprised Cricinfo had full commentary for the U19 game, feels like just yesterday they switched to their new site and started commentary

"India had to huff and puff to victory in the end. They had it all wrapped up, before losing three quick wickets for six runs. Their untested middle order were exposed for a change and coach Dav Whatmore will address those issues before the final"
