A few familiar surnames stand out in the team sheets, ahead of the Under-19 World Cup. And over two weeks in New Zealand, the star kids will not only look to make their famous fathers proud, but also settle some old scores. Sandeep Dwivedi has more in the Indian Express.
The Pakistan and Australia squads in New Zealand for ICC's biannual youth event have a distinct 80s feel to them, with names such as Usman Qadir, Alister McDermott and Mitchell Marsh instantly ringing a bell. Joining them on the starson list are Nicholas Buchanan -- former Australia coach John's son -- and former India all-rounder Ajay Sharma's son Manan. Also keenly following the action in New Zealand will be John Bracewell, whose nephews Doug and Michael are the home team's big hope.
