ICC Under-19 Cricket World Cup (2002)
Australia claimed the championship for the second time when they defeated South Africa by 7 wickets. This edition of the tournament was held in New Zealand.
In what turned out to be Australia's tournament, Cameron White was the leading run-scorer, and Xavier Doherty took 16 wickets to finish atop the bowling charts. Both these players witnessed a career akin to a sine curve and forever remained on the fringe of the national side.
Hashim Amla's South African outfit won many hearts in this edition. Parthiv Patel, Irfan Pathan, Brendon Taylor, Elton Chigumbura, Tim Bresnan, Jesse Ryder, Mohammad Ashraful, Dwayne Bravo, Darren Sammy, Azhar Ali, Umar Gul, and Upul Tharanga were all seen here first.
