Prithvi Shaw
How often do we see a captain not only succeeding in taking his team to victory, but also performing consistently throughout the tournament? Not often, but 18-year-old Prithvi Shaw ended as India's second highest run-scorer in the tournament.
The Indian skipper scored a total of 261 runs in 5 innings at an average of over 65. Along with Manjot Kalra, Shaw gave the Indian team solid starts in all but one game in the tournament. The innings of 94 in the group match against Australia and the quickfire 57 against Papua New Guinea were two of the best innings of the tournament for India.
Leading from the front, the young cricketer became only the 4th Indian captain to win the U-19 World Cup.
