Unmukt
Chand led from the front with a magnificent hundred as India Under-19
lifted his third title of the World Cup after beating defending
champions Australia formidable by six wickets in the final on Sunday.
This was India U-19 first win after Mohammed Kaif and Virat Kohli led their respective teams to victory in the editions of 2000 and 2008 respectively.
Courtesy A magnificent unbeaten 111 Unmukt and continuing partnership of 130 runs with glovesman Smit Patel, India competitive revised target of 226 in a strip of jumps with 14 balls to spare.
It was one of the best centuries have witnessed one could at the lower and hit seven fours and Unmukt six sixes during his 130-ball knock.
He completed his century with a six over extra cover by Alex Gregory, but the celebrations were very muted. The captain knew the job was half done.
Once Smit, who hit a 62 effective, slog-swept off-spinner Ashton Turner deep mid wicket for four the number of Indian supporters rushed to the land along to celebrate with the team.
Although they lost four wickets in the chase, never looked like an uphill task for the Indians, who underwent off media but accelerated towards the end to reach the goal with ease.
After Prashant Chopra was chasing a cesarean leg side of Mark Steketee without bothering the scorer, and as batsman Unmukt Aparajith Baba (33) took the attack to the opposition.
The duo added 73 runs for the second wicket to play the Australian pace trio Steketee Paris, Joel and Gurinder Sandhu easily.
Unmukt, especially, was phenomenal in the final minutes to beat a pair of glorious six Sandhu bowling outside.
The first was long-off while the second was even more spectacular when presenting a face full of bat with a good track.
Aparajith other hand landed a nice hook shot Paris and some lovely housing units that crossed the field.
However, Sandhu had the last laugh when Aparajith forced to drive on the up and was caught brilliantly by Ashton Turner at short cover.
The Tamil Nadu road scored 33 from 38 balls with five hits to the fence. Hanuma Vihari (4) and Vijay Zol (1) did not score much, but some damage done by the number of deliveries that were consumed in the process.
Zol upset against the Parthians moving Unmukt also frustrated that not much of the strike. The Indian captain finally completed his half century in 68 deliveries.
Zol agony ended when he edged one to wicketkeeper outside Paris Jimmy Peirson. The Bowling Powerplay proved useful for the hosts, as they conceded only 11 runs in five overs.
97 for four, Smit Patel joined Unmukt and circumstances were difficult. Dried limits as singles.
It was Smit, who hit consecutive good albums as India got his first boundary after 44 deliveries.
Gradually, the two raised with individual entries and couples. There were limits occasionally, but only a few compared to the blast and four legs Aparajith Unmukt affected in the first 15 overs.
Previously, India squandered the early lead as defending champion Australia recovered from a shaky start to post a competitive 225 for eight.
Choosing to field after winning the toss Indians had the Australians on the mat at 38 for 4 before captain William Bosisto host (87 not out) rebuilt the innings with the help of some notable contributions by the order of Tavis Head (37) and Ashton Turner.
'Veteran' Colts Sandeep Sharma who got four for 54 was the most successful player.
Both teams are named the same xis that had received through the knockouts. While Australia, the goal of a fourth title, entered the final undefeated, India had lost a game in the first group stage to the West Indies.
