It will be a great opportunity for boys to turn into men when the Indian colts face their Australian counterparts today in the final of the Under-19 World Cup at Mount Maunganui, New Zealand. Both sides have won the trophy thrice each, so both have a chance of creating history by becoming the first to win the cup a fourth time. India have so far won all their games in the tournament .
