CHENNAI: In 2017, when Damandeep Singh decided to move to Canada to join his family, he gave his son Harvansh Singh a choice - relocate with him and build a career in Canadian cricket or stay back in India to chase his dream. Without hesitation, Harvansh chose to remain in India, driven by passion to represent the country at the highest level.
Today, that bold decision seems rewarded a s Harvansh, representing the Indian U-19 side, scored a remarkable century (117, 143b; 7x4, 6x6) in the second Youth Test against Australia U-19 at the MA Chidambaram Stadium on Tuesday. His century powered India's innings to a strong 492 before Australia skipper Oliver Peake (62 batting, 113b; 8x4, 1x6) showed his skills to revive his team after an early jolt and finish the day at 142-3.
