India on fire ! Celebrates two glorious wins !

Kaul took 2 wickets in the ultimate over and India won by 12 runs over South Africa in the Under 19 World Cup!

Srivastava top scored with 46, out of a total of 159 in 45.4 overs . Hendricks did well for SA, scoring 35, out of a total of 103/8 in 25 overs !

The Indian boys had done India proud ! This is reminiscent of the 1983 World Cup win and 2007 T20 win !

In the other match Down Under, Rohit Sharma took the pressure off Sachin,a fact acknowledged by Sachin, by scoring 66, while Sachin guided India home with an undefeated 117 not out.

Earlier Indian bowlers did well, restricting the Aussies to 239. Praveen Kumar, the allrounder India has been waiting for, clicked again, taking 2/49, while Bajji took 2/38. Ishant, Yuvraj and Pathan took one wicket each.

Go India ! Go and become a cricket superpower which thou art capable of !
