Cape Town: South Africa pace great Makhaya Ntini is absolutely "floored" by the mindset of the India U-19 team which he feels is on par with their illustrious senior counterparts. Ntini has singled out new IPL entrants Yashashvi Jaiswal, Ravi Bishnoi and Akash Tyagi as players to watch out for during the three-week long tournament beginning on Friday in South Africa.


"In terms of other nations, I've watched the India team in training and I look at those young fellows and how well they conduct themselves —it's almost like they are in the tournament already and their tournament mindset has already kicked in," Ntini told ICC's official website. Ntini, 42, who has 390 Tests and 266 ODI scalps, has been amazed by the work ethic of a team mentored by none other than Rahul Dravid.

"It was great seeing those youngsters training and putting themselves together. They were playing the game so well, and it was almost like I was watching the Indian senior team as they looked very slick playing together."Ntini felt left-handed batsman Jaiswal or fast bowler Tyagi looked like players who have already been groomed to play for the senior Indian team.

"I think the thing with the whole U-19 Indian squad is that they have already been part of the Indian system—they have certain players like Yashasvi Jaiswal, Ravi Bishnoi, Kartik Tyagi and Akash Singh who are set to play in the Indian Premier League. They have already been groomed to represent India when they grow older."
