Virat Kohli, who led the India colts to a World Cup triumph in Kuala Lumpur four years ago congratulated Unmukt Chand led team for beating the mighty Australians in their den.

"Beating Australia in Australia in a World Cup final has never happened before. It's a great achievement. We would love to wish the U-19 cricketers and congratulate them for winning the World Cup," Kohli said on Sunday.

"Having played at the U-19 level, I know how the feeling is… How special is to win the U-19 World Cup… When you come together for a long period of time and especially in Australian conditions," said the rising star of senior team who had shot to instant stardom after the U-19 World Cup triumph.

Kohli feels that the real journey starts from here on and it will only boost these boys' confidence.
