ICC U19 Cricket World Cup - India v Papua New Guinea

To perform well in a tournament as big as the World Cup, the entire team has to rise up to the occasion and work synchronously to achieve the single big goal of winning the title. The international exposure that these young cricketers get through such tournament is immense and thus it becomes one platform for every player to showcase their respective skill sets to the international audience, different franchises, and the country's top selectors.

In this process of making a mark, often players from the same team try to outperform each other thus deviating from the ultimate goal.

But this Indian U-19 side under Rahul Dravid time and again proved to be a bunch of selfless individuals working towards a common goal during the entire tournament. A sense of respect and admiration for each other was clearly noticeable. The credit goes again to Rahul Dravid for creating great team players and not just good batsmen or good bowlers.
