It’s a proud moment (to be the third Indian captain to score a U19 WC ton after Virat Kohli and Unmukt Chand). The idea was to bat steadily, not to try too many shots, and to bat past the 40th over. Myself and Rasheed bat well together, we combine well and it showed,” Dhull said after the game.
“Shaik Rasheed and I had a good partnership and we had good partnerships lower down as well. The way in which the boys are playing is good. Shaik Rasheed is mentally very strong. We were in the bubble together and he is always mentally prepared,” he added.
