NEW DELHI: India are in another U-19 World Cup final, their ninth overall and fifth successive shot at a title they have won a record five times. That streak seemed set to end when they were 32/4 in a chase of 245 against hosts South Africa in testing conditions at Willowmoore Park in Benoni on Tuesday.
But try telling that to Sachin Dhas and skipper Uday Saharan. Fresh from centuries and a 215run stand in their previous game against Nepal, they complemented each other perfectly, this time stitching together a record 171-run stand in 185 balls for the fifth wicket to lift India from despair and secure a nervy two-wicket victory. Dhas, born in 2005 and named after Sachin Tendulkar, smashed 96 off 95 (11x4, 1x6) while Saharan shepherded the chase with a composed 81 off 124 (6x4). India awaits the winner of the second semi-final between Australia and Pakistan.
