[Itachi]

Aussies will be favorites in final.

i hope so.... All favs are getting knocked out in this tournament.

 

[Lethalweapon]

Aus favourites, but India beat them in the tournaments finals in May in Aus. they had Cummins then, that should give India some confidence.

 

[Bhaijaan]

India will look to join Australia as the only team to win the #u19cwc 3 times (Australia - 3; Pakistan - 2; India - 2) #cricket

Chance to leave Pakistan behind again, very good.

[Runner Up]

All the best India. Congrats in advance.

 

[LegCutter]

Good job India, go and make the subcontinent proud!

(Yeah right, I'm rooting for Australia )

 

[Sandeep]

The most heartening aspect has been our bowling! Never expected India could win matches with it's bowling...

 

[Cricfan4eva]

^True but individually except for Harmeet none of them look brilliant. They're working well as a unit though.

 

[cricketworm]

India's bowling is always underrated. I also thought this bowling attack is Ok, but now I think this team has better bowling attack than our batting attack.

 

[dani2k]

When you praise the bowling attack, keep in mind these are better bowling conditions than batting conditions.

Our bowling attack is decent for the conditions though Australia have the edge here with their pace. Our batting has clicked in patches and will have no choice but to come good in the finals. The track is going to be the key. If we get a track that supports the bowlers then it would be 70-30 Australia.

Baba Aparijit .. seriously impressive. batted well in both quarter and semi final, showed application and intent when required.
Plus a very decent offie. Not bad
