Laxman Heaps Praises On 'Resilient' India U19 Team For Winning World Cup

Former India cricketer and the current head of the National Cricket Academy (NCA), VVS Laxman, saluted the "resilience" and "positive attitude" of the U-19 India cricket team after they defeated England by four wickets to lift the U-19 ICC Cricket World Cup for the fifth time on Sunday night (IST).

The Indian cricket team was hit by COVID-19, with five players, including skipper Yash Dhull and vice-captain Shaik Rasheed, testing positive just after the opening group match and forced to isolate for more than 10 days. But the team kept the momentum going despite their top players missing to maintain an all-win record in the group stage.
