New Delhi [India], Feb 6: No doubt it is a great hard work by this young Indian side with Mr.Dependable on their side to command them. India's stunning run in the ICC U-19 World Cup culminated in an authoritative eight-wicket win over Australia in the final for a record fourth title. On the other hand, Lok Sabha congratulates young India Under-19 cricket team for their better performance and World Cup victory in New Zealand. This is the fourth titler for India.

As always, the Twitterati celebrated in full vigor with sports persons and celebrities from all walks of life joining in to wish the Rahul Dravid-coached side for the feat. Earlier in the final game, after winning the toss electing to bat first, Australia were dismissed for the smallest 216 runs in just 47.2 overs. For India Ishan Porel, Shiva Singh and Anukul Roy picked up two wickets each for India and then it was Manjot who make that total more easy.

Opener Manjot Kalra then leads the Indian run chase with an unbeaten century as the Boys in Blue marched toward the victory with 67 balls to spare. Manjot Kalra remained unbeaten on 101 runs off 102 deliveries while Harvik Desai was not out on 47 at the other end. For India it was Desai who hit the winning shot as he brought up the title win in style, smashing a boundary off Australian pacer Will Sutherland.

India thus became the first nation to win the ICC U19 World Cup four times. They had earlier won the title in 2000, 2008 and 2012. This is the second time that India have defeated Australia in the final. They had earlier defeated the boys from Down Under in the final of the 2012 edition.
