The Boys in Blue are due to take on England in the final on February 5.

Indian U-19 cricket team | GettyThe Indian Under-19 team is having a great time in the ongoing ICC Men’s U-19 World Cup in West Indies. They have an unbeaten run so far, winning all their group matches before thrashing Australia in the second semi-final.

With the confidence sky high, the Boys in Blue are due to take on England in the final on Saturday (February 5). Ahead of the all-important fixture, veteran India batter Virat Kohli interacted with Yash Dhull and company and shared his valuable tips.

India U-19 off-spinner Kaushal Tambe took to Instagram to share a screengrab of their virtual interaction with Kohli.

"Some valuable tips from the GOAT ahead of the finals," Tambe wrote in his story on Instagram.

All-rounder Rajvardhan Hangargekar, who has impressed everyone with his exploits in the Youth World Cup, also uploaded a screengrab of the team’s interaction with Kohli.

"It was really good to interact with you @virat.kohli bhaiyaa. Learnt some important things about life and cricket from you which will help us in getting better in upcoming times," Hangargekar wrote in his post.

Having led India to the U-19 World Cup title in 2008, Virat Kohli certainly knows what it takes to win the tournament and his inputs will certainly help the current bunch of teenage cricketers.

Kohli, who will no longer captain the senior Indian team in any format, is currently in Ahmedabad preparing for the upcoming white-ball series against West Indies, starting February 6.
