Top 7 U-19 World Cup batchmates of Virat Kohli

The 2008 Under-19 World Cup is seemingly one of the most significant U-19 World Cups in history as it produced several marquee players who not only went ahead to represent their countries but proved to be modern legends for their respective nations. Virat Kohli is undoubtedly the most prominent name among those.

What were just glimpses of greatness in the U-19 World Cup, Kohli went ahead and achieved all the things which every batter desires. The run machine is not just backed by his insane numbers but also his zeal, enthusiasm and passion for the game which is unparalleled. He played around and against some of the most fantastic players in his early days.

Here are a few names from Virat Kohli's Under-19 World Cup batchmates:

7. Ravindra Jadeja

The 2008 batch did not just give the Indian fans a run machine but it also gave India probably the best all-rounder that world cricket has seen. Vice-captain of the World Cup-winning side, Jadeja carried forward well with Kohli and both went on ahead to see some of the most glorious moments for India.

With 69 Tests, 197 ODIs and 66 T20Is, Jadeja has been an absolute monster with his number whether it is batting or bowling. In a rare sight, if he misses from either, then he makes it up on the field.
