Team India's U19 leg-spinner Ravi Bishnoi scripted history for his nation during India vs Bangladesh U19 World Cup Final on Sunday (February 9).

Going into the tie, India are looking to defend their title and add yet another feather to their cap. They had previously won the tournament in 2000, 2008, 2012 and 2018 while they finished runners-up in 2006 and 2016.

Batting first, India got off to a terrible start as they lost Divyansh Saxena for just two runs early on. Jaiswal and Tilak Varma (38) did steady the ship for India however things went downhill very soon as they kept losing wickets at regular intervals.

The young Bangladeshi bowlers were in top form as their aggressive bowling attack restricted India on 177/10 in 47.2 overs.

However, Bishnoi became the beacon of light for his side during their run-defense as he picked up four key wickets for India.

He dismissed Tanzid Hasan (17) and Mahmudul Hasan Joy (8) and broke Bangladesh's 50-run partnership at the top.

The 19-year-old's next victim was Towhid Hridoy, who was sent back to the dressing room for a duck. Just moments after that, Ravi picked up Shahadat Hossain's wicket too, who managed to score just 1-run.

The young spinner ended the day with the impressive numbers of 10-3-30-4. He also became the leading wicket-taker in the tournament with 17 dismissals under his belt.

Bishnoi also surpassed Shalabh Srivastava (2000), Abhishek Sharma (2002), Kuldeep (2014) and Anukul Roy (2018) and become India's leading wicket-taker ever in a single World Cup edition.

Earlier in the day, Yashasvi Jaiswal was the only stand out performer with the bat on the day for India as he smashed 88 runs off 121 balls and became the leading run-scorer in the tournament too.
