Australia's terrific teenage cricketers have emulated their seniors by beating India to become champions of the world.
Hugh Weibgen's gifted side lifted the Under-19 World Cup at the South African venue of Benoni with a comprehensive 79-run win over the reigning champs on Sunday (Monday AEDT).
After compiling a daunting 7-253 off their 50 overs, the Australians, with their ferocious "cartel" of four young fast bowlers and the artful spin of Raf MacMillan, skittled out India's previously unbeaten side for 174 off 43.5 overs at Willowmoore Park.
