Will keep an eye on these players

The most talked about name is Vaibhav Suryavanshi, who has made a splash against the under-19 teams of England and Australia in the past. He did not even spare international level players in the IPL, so he can wreak havoc on the USA bowlers. Ayush Mhatre also dominates domestically, who can be one of the top-run scorers in this tournament. Araj George and Vihal Malhotra also bat amazingly. If the Indian Under-19 team has to bat first, it is possible that a total of more than 400 may be seen.
