New Delhi. Vaibhav Suryavanshi’s eyes on the first England tour are everyone’s eyes. India Under -19 team will take on the Youth ODI series of 5 matches against England Lions from Friday. The first match will be played in Hov. Where India is waiting for the first win, neither the senior cricket team nor the junior cricket team of India has won this venue so far. Under the captaincy of Mohammad Azharuddin, India played the only match in the World Cup against South Africa in 1999 where it lost. After a long time, the Youngistan team of India has returned here.
