Former England skipper Michael Vaughan showered praise on captain Yash, who became only the third Indian captain after Virat Kohli and Unmukt Chand to register a ton in the U19 World Cup. He slammed a run-a-ball 110.
"India U19s batting looked high class … The future looks secured for the Indian Team... Yash Dhull looks exceptional," Vaughan tweeted.

Former India opener Aakash Chopra also took to Twitter to share his view. "What an incredibly dominating performance by India U-19. Fourth consecutive final. Wow And this time…unlike the last few editions, our team has no first-class cricket experience (due to Covid). Let's get the home #U19CWC #INDvAUS," said Chopra.
