Mumbai's Atharva Ankolekar, Varun Lavande and Suved Parkar can't wait to adorn their India U-19 colours in the Youth Asia Cup to be held in Sri Lanka from September 3. Bowling all-rounder Atharva, who bowls left-arm spin, is now enjoying more variations and batsmen Suved and Varun are feeling more confident as they worked on mental toughness at the NCA in Bangalore.

Atharva and Varun, who had the experience of playing in the 'A' and 'B' division of the Dr HD Kanga Cricket League from the age of 14, representing Parel Sporting Club, are now eager to showcase their talent against Sri Lanka, Pakistan, Bangladesh and Afghanistan.
