It has been almost six years since an Indian team took on Australia in the final of the Under 19 World Cup.&nbsp;

The last time&nbsp;Unmukt Chand led India to glory back in 2012, drawing level with Australia with three title wins apiece.&nbsp;

While the trophy has eluded both teams in the last two editions, the opportunity to become the most successful team in the history of the competition - with a fourth title victory - will spur both Prithvi Shaw and Jason Sangha&#39;s side&nbsp;when they face off in the summit clash of the ICC Under 19 World Cup, 2018 on Saturday. &nbsp;

The promising Prithvi Shaw,&nbsp;is already being&nbsp;touted&nbsp;as the next big thing in Indian cricket. The young star&nbsp;will be eager to join the likes of Mohammad Kaif (2002), Virat Kohli (2008) and Unmukt Chand (2012) in leading the side to the U-19 World Cup title.

As of now, they have put in some impressive performances to win all their five matches including an emphatic 203-run win over arch-rivals Pakistan in the semi-final and a 100-run victory over Australia in their tournament-opener.

India&#39;s batting has been at its lethal best. While the openers -- Shaw and Manjot Kalra -- have given the team good starts throughout the tournament, Shubman Gill has been in phenomenal form at the number - 3&nbsp;position.

Australia, on the other hand, would be desperate for revenge after their big loss to the Indians in the&nbsp;tournament opener.

The Jason Sangha-led side&#39;s last two performances signals that they have upped their game when it mattered.

Australia&#39;s 31-run win over England in the quarterfinal, while defending 127-run total, and a six-wicket win over Afghanistan, who surprised everyone with their semi-final appearance, clearly indicate that they are here to give India a tough fight in the summit clash.
