    India U-19 captain Dhruv Chand confident of Asia Cup dominance
  • India are undoubtedly the leading force in cricket in Asia and even their Under-19 team has dominated the continent.

    To date, there have been seven editions of the U-19 tournament, and India have won on six occasions.

    With the eighth edition getting underway from Tuesday, India are once again favorites to lift their seventh title.

    Meanwhile, here's what India's U-19 captain Dhruv Chand said.

  • Azad also claimed that he admired Sachin Tendulkar.

    While he too is not a tall player, he revealed to have faced difficulties initially playing the bouncers.

    However, upon seeing the videos of Sachin play fearless cricket despite not being tall, Azad has learned a lot.

    It is since then, he has been inspired by Tendulkar and it keeps him driving in his career.

    'I started my career because of Sachin Tendulkar'

  • "I started my career because of him (Tendulkar). I don't have anybody else in my family who plays any sport. I was 10 when I saw his innings on the television screen. I'm really thankful to my parents and my mentor Manan Vohra," added Azad.

  • Azad further stated that during his camp at NCA, he came across Rahul Dravid, who advised him not to take any pressure upon himself and play his natural game.
