Twitter Goes Crazy Over India’s U-19 Pace Sensation

Divesh GillBy Divesh Gill14/01/2018Updated:08/02/2023No Comments4 Mins Read

India has started its Under 19 World Cup campaign with a handsome win over the Aussies. Rahul Dravid’s boys have handed over a 100 run defeat to the Kangaroos in its first game of the tournament.

India outsmarted Australia in all departments of the game to swing the match to their side. Among the batsmen claiming credit for the win is Captain Prithvi Shaw for a captain’s knock of 94 and Shubham Gill who scored 63. But the real heroes of the match for India were the Indian pacers.

KAMLESH NAGARKOTI THE HERO WITH THE BALL

Indian bowlers were given a big total by the batsmen to defend. India posted 328 and while chasing the total, the Aussies were wrecked by pacers Nagarkoti and Shivam Mahi. Both the bowlers bagged 3 wickets each.

TWITTER STUNNED BY NAGARKOTI’s PACE

Kamlesh Nagarkoti, the 18-year-old bowler picked up 3 wickets from 7 overs and conceded just 29 runs. Everyone is in awe of the pacer for his clinical performance but what is making big news is his speed.

The pacer touched 147 KMPH which is too good for an Indian bowler, especially at this young age. The lad has got some serious express pace and it is taking everyone by storm. His express pace is making news in an express manner. His delivery which was a lethal 147 KMPH was the fastest delivery of the match and it would be no surprise if it ends up being the fastest delivery of the tournament as well.

BIG BOOST IN MORALE

This big victory with which India has kick started the tournament would be a big boost for the boys. India has made it clear to other teams that they would play this tournament as favourites.

These performers too have done themselves a great deal of confidence and these clinical performances would inspire them to keep doing good and bring the World Cup home. This team is on a mission and in their very first game they have made it clear that they are here to blast oppositions.

Here are some twitter reactions:

This was serious pace from our boys. Solid beginning beating the Aussies by 100 runs. May the hunger continue and we carry the momentum. #U19CWC pic.twitter.com/zL75RDxjN3

Kamlesh Nagarkoti bowling with some heat (in kph): 140, 143, 145, 144, 146, 140. That is some serious pace for a 18-year-old. #U19CWC

Two Indian U19 boys are bowling 140kph + for fun.. Shivam Mavi and Kamlesh Nagarkoti who just bowled at 146.. Remember a time where as fans we got excited to see Right Arm Fast Medium instead of Right Arm Medium Fast for an Indian pacer. And that was the senior players #U19CWC

Kamlesh Nagarkoti: New Fastest Indian bowler is in making ? His consistency of throwing fast balls is more than anything else right now.. What a Champion!#U19CWC

Kamlesh Nagarkoti and Shivam Mavi bowling consistently 140+ kmph is a refreshing sight. Nagarkoti bowls well in the death as well. First person to take List A hat-trick for Rajasthan.
These two will be hot picks during IPL auction, I guess#U19CWC @StarSportsIndia

Kamlesh Nagarkoti reminds me of Shaun Tait with a better line and length. The only difference is that Tait just had pace but Nagarkoti has most of the qualities of a legendary fast bowler! #INDvAUS #U19CWC
