After bagging lucrative deals at the IPL auction, members of the unbeaten Indian team will be eager to deliver when they face arch-rivals Pakistan in the second semifinal of the ICC U-19 World Cup here tomorrow. The young Indian guns would also be high on confidence, having secured potentially life-changing deals at the IPL auction with their performances in the World Cup. As rightly put by coach Rahul Dravid, "auction will come every year but not the opportunity play in a World Cup". And place in a World Cup final is at stake. Pakistan will be more familiar with the conditions, having played their quarterfinal at the Hagley Oval, Christchurch.
