Virender Sehwag wrote that a legend like Rahul Dravid deserves to lay his hands on the World Cup.

India won the ICC U19 World Cup for the fourth time on Saturday. The Boys in Blue beat Australia by 8 wickets to secure the title.

While it was the first big trophy for the young Indian cricketers, it also meant a first World Cup win for a veteran- Rahul Dravid.

"The Wall" was one the best cricketers to have played for India. However, he didn't win the World Cup during his playing days. India has crashed out of the 2007 World Cup in the first round under his captaincy. But now he has won a World Cup as coach of the under-19 team.

According to Twitter, it couldn't have happened to better man.

Rahul's former India teammate Virender Sehwag wrote, "a legend like him deserves to lay his hands on the WC."
