Kuala Lumpur: India regained the Under-19 Cricket World Cup crown after eight years with a close 12-run victory over South Africa in the rain-affected final here on Sunday.
This was India's second triumph in the tournament's history after they captured the crown in 2000 in Sri Lanka. The win also exorcised the memories of the last edition when India went down to Pakistan in a low-scoring final in the same country.
The win was followed by scenes of great jubilation as the players and the coaching staff, including coach Dav Whatmore, erupted in joy and were seen embracing and congratulating each other.
