As India U-19 gear up to take on England in the ICC Under-19 World Cup on Saturday evening, a billion people will unite in their prayers for the Indian colts to bring home an unprecedented fifth U-19 World Cup trophy. Players of the Indian senior team are no different and they’ve also taken to social media to share their excitement ahead of the Indian colts’ summit clash with England.

Players such as Virat Kohli, Shikhar Dhawan, Rishabh Pant, all of whom have represented India at the Under-19 World Cup took to Twitter and wished the youngsters good luck for the final.

While Shikhar Dhawan played at the U-19 World Cup in 2004, he held the record for the highest score by an Indian player at the U-19 World Cup, which was recently shattered by Raj Angad Bawa. Dhawan had scored 155 runs, while Angad scored an unbeaten 162 against Uganda.

Virat Kohli meanwhile was equally as decisive during his team’s winning run as he led India to their second-only U-19 World Cup triumph in 2008. Pant meanwhile, was vice-captain of the Under-19 cricket team in the 2016 World Cup.

On Saturday, all of Pant, Kohli and Shikhar took to social media to wish the India U-19 players good luck ahead of their all-important clash against England.
