Raj Limbani Strikes Again: India U-19 Bowler Makes History in World Cup Final
India U-19 fast bowler Raj Limbani showcased a stellar performance in the World Cup final against Australia, clinching a historic wicket in the crucial encounter.
Limbani, who hails from Gujarat, made an immediate impact in the final match by taking the prized wicket of Australian opener Sam Costas with a stunning in-swinging delivery that shattered the stumps.
The video of Limbani’s sensational delivery went viral on social media, capturing his skillful ability to swing the ball late, leaving Costas clueless.
Costas, who faced four balls from Limbani, was completely deceived by the late movement and found his stumps dismantled.
Limbani’s remarkable feat marked his first successful wicket of the match, providing the crucial breakthrough for Team India.
Inducted into the U-19 team, Limbani has been a standout performer in all of India’s World Cup matches, consistently claiming the first wicket.
Raj Limbani’s journey from Kutch to Baroda exemplifies his dedication to cricket, having left his village near the Pakistan border to pursue his passion and make his mark in the sport.
In the semi-final showdown against South Africa, Limbani’s exceptional bowling figures of 3 wickets for 60 runs proved pivotal in India’s victory.
